Score 94/100 · James Suckling, Feb 2019

This shows all the varietal character you could ask for, including passion fruit, guava peel, juniper berries and smoked bacon, but it’s presented in a really approachable way with nothing in excess. Full-bodied and muscular for a sauvignon blanc, yet held back and restrained. Velvety mouthfeel. Bright acidity brings this to a long finish. Drink now.

The 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Estate offers slightly more purity and freshness compared to the 2014, with notes of caramelized citrus, Meyer lemon, orange rind, and mint. Medium-bodied, with bright acidity, solid concentration, and a great finish, it’s another high class, age-worthy Sauvignon Blanc from this estate.

Score 92/100 · Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2017

Containing 6% Sémillon, the 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Estate from Howell Mountain opens with gregarious lemon curd, grapefruit and white peach notes with hints of lemongrass, dried herbs and fresh hay. Medium-bodied, fresh and laden with peachy fruit, it has very compelling mineral accents and finishes long and earthy.
