90 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (Wine Advocate): "Blended of 88% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Sémillon and 2% Muscat, the 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve slowly grows in intensity, unfurling to give pronounced green apples, white peach and lemon curd scents with hints of paraffin wax, orange blossoms and crushed rocks. The palate is medium-bodied with a lovely satiny texture and bold freshness supporting the intense stone fruit and citrus layers, finishing long and minerally. Drink: 2019-2022. (Nov 2019)"
Producer notes: "[$35 list] 89% Sauvignon Blanc, 9% Semillon, 2% Muscat; 100% Honig estate fruit. Jasmine, peach and white nectarine are complemented by notes of key lime, ruby grapefruit and Meyer lemon. A remarkable equilibrium between oak and fruit lends itself to a creamy, rich midpalate that finishes with the essence of lemon curd and a hint of toasted marshmallow. This lovey example of an ageable Sauvignon Blanc can be enjoyed now through 2023 and beyond. 60% aged for 8 months in oak puncheons; 40% aged for 8 months in new French oak barrels and puncheons. Alcohol 14.1%."
