Goedhuis, July 2023
The Terraces come from a small single vineyard planted in 1998 sitting on soils rich in decomposed granite and limestone. Racing with energy, this 2019 is alive with bright fruit and fresh floral aromatics. The purity of fruit here is dazzling, with swirls of crisp lemon, grapefruit, white peach, and apricot all tinged with a salty, mineral edge. Toasted almonds and marmalade complexities add richness on the beautifully textured palate. Delightfully fresh thanks to a crystalline acidity, this has all the tension and precision you’d expect from California’s hugely successful 2019 vintage. Only 193 cases made. Drink 2023–2029.

Wine Enthusiast, July 2023, Score: 94
Clean lines of white melon, nectarine and lemon verbena make for a sharp, focused and unique nose on this bottling. Grapefruit zest enlivens the tip of the sip, as warmer pine nut, melon and honeysuckle flavors slide into a citrus-spiked popcorn finish.
