A very earthy red! Deep red, lots of tobacco, dried herbs, wet moss. A good recommendation that I would revisit. — 5 years ago

This is a rather crazy bottle, opened up today as more of an experiment than anything else. This wine is YOUTH-FUL. The nose is oak, blackberry cassis and graphite. The entry is youthful, sweet, chalky blackberry and fig. The middle of this wine is DENSE. Dark core, black fruits, a little bit of heat. A little smoky, meaty. The finish has a youthful tannin. With 60 acres of vineyard on Howell Mountain and 300 acres of vineyards in Yountville, you can taste the characteristics of both here in this bottling, but needs years to develop its individual personality. — 8 years ago

Howell Mountain heaven! We are going to be up there at the end of October for Halloween on Howell (Howl) Mountain! With wines like this, it will be an amazing time! Thank you Sam Kaplan and Susan Krausz. — 10 years ago

Susan Krausz was a wonderful host again this year. She has reason to be proud of her wines, because they are spectacular! I am not a Sauvignon Blanc fan, but in the hands of winemaker Sam Kaplan, it is not a citrus bomb. Instead, it is a complex combination and balance of mineral, banana, tropical fruit without the bite. One of the few Sauvignon Blancs that I feel can be great now and 6 years from now. — 8 years ago
