Nice blend of aromas. Green apple, pear, white flowers and a touch of citrus. Same fruits on the pallet along with hints of almonds and yellow apple. Hint of salinity on the finish. Not buttery at all. Exceptional balance and complexity. Crisp and medium bodied. Thank You John P. — 4 years ago

Pop and pour. A superb light golden straw color. On the nose: lemon, tart green apple, crushed rocks, little pear, and a touch of honey. Taste: elegant, creamy medium body wine with nectarine, minerals, lemon rind, apple, cinnamon and a spiced white peach decent finish. Cheers! — 5 years ago

This magnum from Leeuwin estate Cab art series is a garnet in colour with the rims showing alight orange tinge showing the ripening of the wine. This seven year old vintage is “a point” in terms of ripening. Definitely not a Bordeaux style can but more of a Connewarre style Cab exhibits red cherry, raspberry and leather notes. In terms of length, 40-50 sec finish. Pairs beautifully with lamb (big green egg) roast. Beautiful! — 6 years ago

Bright acidity, still a little green but wonderful. Would like to see how it evolves in a year. Visited the tasting room for Ellory’s bachelorette and had a lovely time. Beautiful space, knowledgeable staff and intimate setting with long live edge table for tasting and handmade wooden chandeliers from found branches 😍 dreamy — 8 years ago

Found another '14 bottle, continuing to develop nicely. Bright straw yellow with aromas of fresh fruit, stone fruits and citrus with floral notes. On the palate, complex flavors, full and rich with peach, green apple, mango and vanilla spice. The wine had a soft mineral taste with nutty toasty oak, noting that the wine sat on French oak, (40% new). The finish was smooth with great texture and balance, time in the cellar will add benefit, an outstanding offering from Patz & Hall. — 8 years ago

Super crisp and tart. Crunchy gooseberry, star fruit, jicama, lime, lemon zest, wet river rock, oyster shell, unripe green apple, basque cider. Super fine creamy mousse. Excellent for shellfish, sushi, and oysters. Extremely refreshing. — 4 years ago

EnRoute established in the RRV in 2007 by the partners of Far Niente. Les Pommiers introduced in May 2009 and reflects a blend of vineyards from Green Valley and upper Middle Reach area of RRV AVA. Complex fruit aromas, cedar and mineral notes. On the palate cherry and cranberry flavors with tobacco and toasty oak, rich structured tannins. Nice mouthfeel, zesty crisp acidity ending with fruit, mineral and oak character. Nice! Tasting Sample. — 6 years ago

16' Rochioli Sauvignon Blanc. Not quite 60% of this SB comes from vines planted in 1959. Three single vineyards in total.

Palate- Lemon, green apple, grapefruit, tangy & zesty. Dusty minerality throughout the palate. Perfect amount of acidity. The finish is long & lingers for a bit. Perfect pairing with swordfish. Very enjoyable bottle.

Edit- Let it warm up and open up for about 20 minutes in your glass. — 8 years ago

An oily texture that coats the palate. Love the texture and it matches well with vanilla and green apple jolly rancher, minus the sweetness. Hints of baked goods, like a fresh scone. — 4 years ago

Color of light gold with a touch of green hue. Nose is plenty with ripe banana, ripe pineapple, ripe peach, some green apple, some roasted nuts, and a bit of tangerine, feeling strength of alcohol also. Taste is dominated by subtle sweetness, zest, roasted nuts, mineral, and smooth acidity. Aftertaste is again more roasted nuts, grapefruit, lingering sweetness and acidity, clean and flavorful. Nice one. — 6 years ago
