Bright, clean and fresh peach and citrus aromas. This carries over into the palate with peach, pineapple, and a citrusy acid steak that envelopes the mouth. Perfect start to the evening, the Seahawks game not withstanding....

Dec 25th, 2016Perfect wine for the Seahawks victory tonight. Well balanced play between Semillon and Sauv Blanc for a victorious blend of stone fruit, white flowers, and a nice acidic streak finding its spot in the zone. Lovely stuff.

Lovely! Not too grassy & citrusy, and not too much like a melon! Perfect blend of Sauvignon Blanc & Semillon. Pairing nicely with ginger/soy cod and garden fresh green beans.

Still drinking nicely, the semillon gives more weight to the sav blanc. Nice minerality as well- not expected but appreciated.

Over a 3.5 hour period on May 29, my wife and I (along with three kids in tow) had the pleasure of sitting down with Will Segui of Rivers-Marie and winemaker of his personal label William & Mary at the Mending Wall facilities in St. Helena to taste through seven wines from bottle. Will also graciously provided tastings of his 2016 and 2017 William & Mary varietals from barrel.
Primarily Sauvignon Blanc; clean, floral, light tropical nose; creamier palate than what I expected with lemon custard and flowers with an underlying minerality; fresh and vibrant; not overly complex; refreshing.

Stonefruit, pear and lychee. Needs to breathe a bit, but magnificent once it is ready.
