Medium-full golden color. All the lime zest, saline, herb, and light honey markers are still there, but are now a bit more rounded with some graceful age. My last bottle from a half case over the last 11 years, and all of them were great.

Medium-full golden color. With the benefit of some age, there are now distinct and pleasant blackcurrant, fresh herb, and lime aromas. The palate shows flavors of lime zest, saline, herb, and light honey, which are focused and staying. I believe this is still the highest-rated domestic sauvignon blanc from WS ever, and it doesn’t disappoint. This wine continues to evolve, and is even better than the bottle I had three years ago. With plenty of life remaining, I’ll save my last one for next summer.

Light to medium golden color, with aromas of citrus, herb, and honeysuckle. The palate shows plush flavors of white melon, lime, light honey, and a saline note. Medium finish, with plenty of life remaining.

Sadly, our last bottle from this vintage... balanced and complex.

Well balanced - peach, pear and just the right amount of acid.
