Intensely mineral Sauvignon Blanc with notes of green apple, citrus, kiwi, pear, and hints of lemon, honey. Great wine.
Clayton Roney –
This wine has a pale golden color with light honey, citrus, melon, and kiwi scents. It has a mineraly taste with intense lemon, melon, honey, and kiwi flavors framed with citrusy acid.
Lonnie Pacheco –
Rich with notes of new oak, grass, caramel, and pineapple. Slightly oxidized.
Rachel Lahr –
Well-balanced sauvignon blanc with refreshing fruit and bracing acidity. Remains enjoyable even after three days in the fridge.
Jacque Outen –
Lacks fruit, disappointing. Could be temperature or poor quality.
Gene Lockett –
Light-bodied with lemon and flint aromas. Bracing acidity and a nice expression of the wine. However, lacking in fruit and body.
Albert Tsosie –
Aged Sauvignon Blanc with citrus, stone, and slate flavor. Interesting to try, but prefer them younger from Rudd and California.
James Brown –
Great Cal SB.
Charles Vanwagoner –
Pricey for quality, flat finish with unbalanced dryness. Lemon and mineral mid-palate. Just okay.
Jesse Forbes –
Delightful blend of grass, bell peppers, sourness, minerals, lemons, and jalapenos. Yum.
Pauline Davis –
Rudd Sauvignon Blanc – Aromas of white peach, lychee, passion fruit and kumquat. Flavors of nectarine, blood orange, passion fruit and a touch of almond. Mouthwatering finish of 25-30 seconds with passion fruit and almond notes.
Michael Aycock –
Exceptionally well-made wine with a beautiful nose, mild citrus, melon, cedar, earth, and mineral flavors. Good texture, seamless structure, and a bright, lively, crisp finish. Perfect with raw oysters.
Erin Reynolds –
Sauvignon Blanc from Napa Valley. Limes, grapefruits, citrus, green apples, spices, herbs, grass, vegetables, white pepper. Medium-bodied, crisp, refreshing, dry with tangy finish. Good by itself and better with food. 91 points, $35.
John Patterson –
Decent SB with brett on the nose, honeysuckle, smoke, and orange blossoms. Medium finish.
Nancy Martin –
Himalayan Lunch at Chateau Davyd: Clean, fruity, and fresh. 86% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Sauvignon Gris, 2% Semillon. Not for extended ageing.

Exotic aromas and flavors of lychee, kumquat, lemon, pastry, marshmallow, and guava. Long tropical fruit finish.
Douglas Richards –
Excellent house wine, improved with time.
Robin Johnsen –
Delicious and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc from Mount Veeder in Napa Valley with limes, citrus, green apples, spices, minerals, light grass, herbs, light gooseberry, and white pepper. Nicely balanced with lots of fruits to balance the acidity. Drinking very nicely now and will continue in the next few years. 92 points. $37.
Gretchen Bertrand –
Great.
Dennis Friesner –
Review: Judgement of Singapore’s “Other Varieties” is fresh and grassy with cream on the nose. It’s bright and acidic, with a hint of sweetness on the finish, but slightly bitter.
