Stone fruits, grapefruit, apricots, honeydew-lime mix. Striking acidity through the balance of the wine.

Jul 4th, 2021Coldest vineyards in Napa. Sancerre-like. Triple fermented in steel, egg and oak. Great depth of flavor and complexity. Delicious SB here.

Aug 22nd, 2017A delicious SB. This is a style I enjoy as it clearly spends some time in oak. Creamy, a touch of vanilla, tropical fruits, pineapple - there is a nice acidity and a great mouthfeel to this wine. Purchased on a flash sale site I think for $20, this easily crushes many $50 plus bottles I've had. Really, really enjoyed it.
