94 points Wine Spectator: "Distinctive, with an aromatic swirl of honeysuckle, a whiff of resinous smoke and flavors of grilled peach. Reveals touches of marmalade, toasted sesame and mouthwatering salted lime, with toasted herb, candied ginger and rooibos tea elements lingering on the finish. Drink now. 543 cases made. (Apr 2024)"
92 points James Suckling: "Lots of dried apricot, peaches and sliced red apple. Full and layered with a rich and oily character. Lots of phenolic texture. Remains lively. Made in concrete, stainless and cask. Exotic nature to this. Sauvignon blanc planted on Howell Mountain in 1996. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink now. (Feb 2023)"
The Ink Grade Estate Vineyard claims a view unbeknownst to most in the Napa Valley, lying in the northeast corner of the Howell Mountain AVA. Terraced throughout due to the extreme slopes, this mountainside vineyard clings to volcanic “tufa” soils. Ink Grade Estate possesses a raw tension that renders fruit of immense intensity and depth. If ever there was a site that imparted a feeling of reverence, Ink Grade is such a place.
