James Suckling
One of the stars of this challenging vintage. Cool and reserved nose with fresh mint, parsley and basil aromas. Some aeration in the glass teases a lot more crisp pear and yellow-apple aromas out of the wine and expands the mid-palate creaminess. Excellent structure and juiciness on the sleek and precise, medium-bodied palate. Complex wet-stone minerality at the self-confidently dry and crisp finish. Drink or hold.

Wine & Spirits
This is Paul Hobbs’s homecoming, a traveling winemaker returning to his family’s roots, the winery named for his parents. This third release is a posh wine, dry and lean, with yeasty scents of apple, celery and lime. The flavors lean more tropical, with peach and passion fruit, all delivered within a beautiful structure, elegant, modestly creamy, with a delicious mouthwatering tang. The flavors drive long into the finish, for pasta with parsley pesto.
Notes
95-points Tasting Panel:"Aromas of honey and fresh linen intersect with tart lemon, frozen peach, and crisp Asian pear, carried on a sea breeze that tingles and arouses the palate. Initiated by taut acidity, salinity leaves an impact through the finish."
