TP Tasting Panel: 93 Points
Aromas: Lemon chiffon, gardenia, wet stone Kimberlee Nicholls has been crafting wines at Markham since 1993; this vintage of her Sauvignon Blanc, fermented in 98% stainless steel, combines fruit from Oak Knoll, St. Helena, and other Napa Valley sites. It's vivid, crisp, and steely, with a pinch of salty wet stone enlivening notes of lemon meringue and honeyed grapefruit.
JS James Suckling: 90 Points
The nose is fresh and focused, with aromas of lemon pith, grapefruit rind and river stones. The palate is medium-bodied with precise acidity, giving notes of nectarines, fresh pineapple and red apple skin. Fresh and well constructed.
WE Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
Zesty and stimulating, this wine offers flavors of Meyer lemon and nectarine. A silken mouthfeel and stimulating acidity continue into an extended, flavorful finish.
