Critiques

Wine Spectator (WS) : 92 Points (2016)

This is refined, with a steely spine that lets gooseberry, verbena and white peach flavors streak through. A hint of shortbread adds range and mouthfeel along the edges. The long finish has lovely cut. Drink now through 2019.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 90 Points (2016)

Solid aromas of white peach, gooseberry, sweet grass and lime leaf lead the bouquet of this charming wine. The medium-weight palate is cut by ample acidity, leading with ripe fruit flavors that transition to notes of pear skin and subtle gingery spice on the close. It's well balanced and offers good evolution through the sip. Drink now–2019.Best Buy

Robert Parker (RP) : 87 Points (2015)

The 2015 Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of the top blocks from the estate from southeast facing slopes, vines aged between four- and 20-years-old. It has a touch of tropical fruit on the nose - simple but clean. The palate is clean and fresh with nicely judged acidity, brisk abdn breezy with green apple and a touch of gooseberry towards the finish. Drink this over the next 2-3 years.

Vinous (Antonio Galloni) (VN) : 89 Points (2014)

Pale, bright straw. Reticent aromas of peach, grapefruit and lime, along with a hint of soft citrus fruits. Nicely broad and minerally but reserved today, still holding a bit of CO2. Shows a resiny hint from lees contact, not from wood (the wine was done entirely in stainless steel tanks). Good firm, lingering finish. Still needs a year to harmonize and open, but has the palate presence and minerality to pair well with food already.
