91pts James Suckling
Spiced pears, cantaloupe melons, peaches, pie crust and vanilla on the nose. Some lemon zest. Medium- to full-bodied with bright, zesty acidity and a creamy texture.
Sauvignon Blanc was the first white grape variety Cakebread planted in 1972 adjacent to the winery, & it's still thriving there today. Zesty citrus aromas & flavors & balanced acidity make this classic Sauvignon Blanc perfect for a multitude of dishes.
Beautiful deeply flavored, balanced, & fresh—a great summer drinker to be sure, especially with a quick chill. It’s clean and direct, with firm, blue-black fruit that lasts long past each sip.
WS 90Pts.
Light and juicy, this glides along with a harmonious, fruit-forward mix of juicy green apple, lime sherbet and lemon meringue. Details of ginger, lemongrass and shortbread linger in the background.
Richly aromatic with bright notes of citrus melon & pear. These same enchanting notes continue onto the palate with a silky entry that slowly builds to a long finish with lingering citrus. Crisp minerality & juicy acidity lift & support the generous fruit
WA 95 : Lavender, mint, violets and crème de cassis notes are laced into the super-expressive finish. Blackberry pie, plum preserves, mulberries and licorice. Smoked meats and scents of raspberry leaves. A VERY complex wine!
