The exclamation point is the right icon. A complete surprise to me as I forgot I owned a bottle of the Honig C.S. and thought I was pouring myself a glass of Sauvignon Blanc which I have enjoyed in the past. Dark and opaque with the nose and flavor of very ripe currants and cassis liqueur. It seems to have some oak influence and fine tannins. Not coming together for me as a balanced wine. I think I will stick with the Sauvignon Blanc from this producer in the future.

I've had some nice bottles of Cab from this family owned vineyard. Mite be a tad young as their juice normally are agers. WW

That occurred to me too. Maybe it would have improved in a few more years.
