Expert Reviews

90 Points | Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

($50) Palish color shows a Chablis-like green tinge. Orange peel, ginger and nutmeg on the nose. Densely packed, sweet and bright, with exotic orange marmalade, pineapple and floral flavors. The wine's strong mineral and citrus zest notes and sappy acidity give it terrific precision and penetration in the middle palate. Finishes intense yet delicate, with excellent length.
