96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "I’d wager one of the finest examples of this variety in California, the 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Grassini Family Vineyard reveals a lighter gold hue as well as a brilliant array of crushed citrus, lime, fresh fig, green almonds, and crushed rock-like minerality. Based on 100% Sauvignon Blanc that was barrel fermented and aged in just 10% new French oak, it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a concentrated, vibrant mouthfeel, bright and integrated acidity, and great finish. This puppy will keep for two decades. Drink: 2021-2041. (8/26/21)"
95 points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Grassini Family Vineyard is a gorgeous cuvée with the quality and character of a fine Bordeaux Blanc. Its herbal white peaches and lime peel aromas are accented with wafts of dried chamomile and flint, and the medium-bodied palate is satiny, detailed and expansive. It has energetic acidity, honeyed bass tones and incredible length—signs this might become more compelling with a bit of bottle age. Drink: 2022-2027. (Mar 2022)"
94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Grassini Family Vineyard stands out in this range for its cut and focus. Lemon peel, white flowers, mint and crushed rocks abound. This vibrant, super-expressive Sauvignon Blanc has so much to offer. Like all the Sauvignon Blancs in this range, the Grassini has plenty of depth. Dried pear, crushed flowers and mint linger. Drink: 2022-2029. (Oct 2021)"
92 points MaryAnn Worobiec (Wine Spectator): "Tropical hints of pineapple and coconut water show a touch of buttery apricot cobbler on a supple, smooth and creamy body, followed by piercing acidity and a note of candied ginger on the finish. Drink now. 230 cases made. (7/31/2022)"
