Soft tannins with ripe fruit and earthy depth — 10 years ago
Drank this with steaks at Charlie Palmer Steak House in DC, where you can bring in two bottles of any American wine with no corkage fee! ... No shy nose for this wine ... Palate a bit more restrained , but still solid. Much better than basic Caymus or Lail, for comparison, though 30% more in price. — 11 years ago

2009 Sauvignon Blanc. The Mondavi 'I Block' (old vine to kalon) was superb and got more focused with time. The Lail Georgia was tropical from start to finish, with almost too much pineapple fruit and coconut (oak). Bias included, the 09 Albion was exceptional and cleared the flight save the slightly flabby nose. Freshness reigned supreme, particularly at 6 years young. — 9 years ago
