Give a Bordeaux winemaker California sunshine and magic happens! The nose is dark fruit, very dark fruit, with tobacco and anise notes. The palate is blackberry, boysenberry, black currant compote with licorice and some tobacco. Outstanding. — 11 years ago

The wine was clear, clean and had a bright sunshine yellow color. Aromas of green fruit and citrus were noted along with some floral edges. The wine is a blend of 49% Sauvignon Blanc Musqué, 36% Sauvignon Blanc, 15% Semillon; 67% of the grapes came from Napa and 33% from Sonoma. The palate showed sweet ripe grapefruits, fleshy apple and some lemony nuances. The finish was better than medium, showing some spice and a touch of earthy minerals. Outstanding! — 10 years ago

A restrained classic CdeP with 10% Mourvèdre to provide some soul. An 05 so has gotten supple but still a wallop PC fruit. Bottled sunshine. Enjoyed at home with roast chicken — 12 years ago

Bright sunshine. Lisa wants to drink this on the porch of our plantation overlooking the Spanish moss covered elms. Lemon, orange peel, stones. Living and vibrant. Great acid/fruit balance. Med+ length. ~chalky texture. Delicious now but good to age. — 10 years ago
