Delicious, balanced, still white wine from Iron Horse. One of the better Sauvignon Blancs we've tasted in ages. Very rich flavors, and almost oily texture, yet bone dry and an excellent food wine. Some floral notes from the Viognier add to the full flavors of peach, vanilla, and spice. Rich and appealing wine. - HK 2002-01-06
