The 2018 Albariño has a floral greeting, with notes of guava and lychee. Its natural acidity is substantial, but the fruit richness offers a balance that makes it luscious. - MH
2018 Sonoma Valley Godello
The 2018 Godello is very much like its recent predecessors, perhaps a cross of the 2016 and 2017. Its aromatics are more earth-toned than the Albariño, with a touch of sweet pea and hay. - MH
2014 Napa Valley Red Wine
Great wine demands thoughtful decisions at every stage of the process, from planning a vineyard through bottling. All of this is the result of attentive care, not just passively working a vineyard site, and certainly not leaving nature to its own devices in the cellar. - MH
