87 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2010

($15) Light greenish-yellow color. Peppery aromas of lime zest and lemongrass are complemented by a deeper suggestion of ripe pear. Tangy but broad, offering subtly sweet orchard fruit flavors and a bracing kick of citrus zest. Shows an attractive blend of sweetness and cut on the finish, which repeats the lemongrass note. This is a solid value for California sauvignon blanc and should be very flexible with food.

But just because wines made from Sauvignon Blanc are rarely crafted for extended cellaring and don't command staggering sums in international auctions doesn't mean that...
