Shane’s Notes

This was the first of our wines from our last Napa trip, and it was even better than I remember. This S.B. is unblended and very acidic. The palate emits a laser beam of flavors including lemon, grass, melon and green apple. This wonderfully complex and concentrated S.B. is closer in style to a New Zealand S.B. than to its wimpy Bordeaux cousin weakened with Semillon. It is one of the best S.B’s I’ve ever tasted and a huge bargain at this price.
