Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Delicious, elegant grapefruit and honeyed notes emerge from this blend of equal parts Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon.

Wine Enthusiast: The wine has some weight and an attractive meat and smoke character to go with the black berry fruits. Well balanced, shot through with acidity. R.V.
