High Valley 2004 Sauvignon Blanc (Lake County)

  1. $15
Here’s another successful Lake County Sauvignon Blanc. It’s zingy in refreshing lemon custard flavors, with a rich, butteriness brightened by citrusy acids. Finishes a little sweet.  — S.H.  (11/1/2005)

High Valley 2005 Sauvignon Blanc (High Valley)

  1. $15
Although this wine’s chief fault is thinness, probably due to overcropping the vines in this high-yield vintage, it has some really nice attributes. It’s clean, bone dry and crisply acidic, with interesting citrus and gooseberry flavors. A little more concentration would make it terrific.  — S.H.  (5/1/2007)

Young and racy, this wine has crisp citrus zest, gooseberry, white pepper and vanilla flavors that finish dry. The mouth-watering acidity scours the palate clean.  — S.H.  (8/1/2007)

High Valley 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (High Valley)

  1. $25
With a smooth texture, velvety tannins and long finish, there’s lots to like in this Cabernet from Lake County. A drawback is that the blackberry and cherry fruit tastes sweetly sugared, which makes the wine rustic.  — S.H.  (5/1/2007)

A bit thin in lemony flavor, with crisp acids and an edge of vanilla and sweet clover on the finish. Very dry and clean. Fine with picnic fare.  — S.H.  (12/15/2004)

This Cab tastes like it comes from a hot climate. It’s soft in acids and tannins, with slightly sweet flavors of cherry liqueur.  — S.H.  (11/1/2005)
