Connoisseur’s Guide to California Wine, January 2018 – 92pts “Wonderment’s first-rate Zinfandel reviewed earlier in this issue finds an equally impressive partner in this carefully constructed Sauvignon Blanc, and the latter garners very high marks for its unwavering varietal focus and fine fruity depth. It is moderately full-bodied and loaded with concentrated, lightly herbal, lemon-tinged fruit, and, as inviting as it is in its youth, it conveys an uncommon sense of reserve that is the harbinger of great things to come. Well-made Sauvignon Blanc has the ability to age and improve for many years, and this serious offering is one that is destined to do so famously.”
Zinfandel Chronicles, November 2017 – 90pts “Light straw in color. 14.4% ABV. Delightful nose of stone fruits, lemongrass and minerals. Medium body with bright acidity. Rich and somewhat oily. Pineapple, lemon oil and pears on the palate. The finish lingers. Super Sauvignon Blanc. Drink over the next 2-3 years.”
