Score 92/100 · Drink 2020-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2020

The 2018 Dissonance is bright and finely cut, with tons of varietal character. Lemon peel, mint, dried herbs white pepper, sage and white flowers give this brisk, taut Sauvignon its distinctive feel. The 2018 includes 12% Semillon, but that is not especially obvious.

This estate always makes a racy style of Sauvignon Blanc and their 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Dissonance is no exception. Bright citrus, lemon, grapefruit, and minty notes all emerge from the glass, and it's medium-bodied, clean and crisp on the palate. Drink it over the coming year or so.

Score 91/100 · Drink 2019-2022, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Nov 2019

Composed of 88% Sauvignon Blanc and 12% Semillon coming from Hudson Vineyard, the 2018 Dissonance features intense scents of fresh lemon juice, grapefruit, lime leaves and coriander seed with hints of honeysuckle and musk perfume. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers super-charged vivacity with bags of citrus fruit flavors and a racy backbone, finishing long and mineral laced. 2000 cases were made.
