Score 90/100 · Drink 2012-2019, Robert Parker, Dec 2011
Coming from the same vineyard that produces the over-achieving red wine called Goulee, this is a 12.5-acre parcel planted with 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon. Well-made, with crisp notes of fig, lemon zest, quince, freshly mowed grass and a buttery melon/grapefruit note, this is a complex dry white that should drink nicely for 5-7 years.
