A beautiful wine, sharp and clean in acidity and savory, with ripe lemon, lime, pineapple and grapefruit citrus flavors. Finishes dry and honeyed, a paradox. ——S.H.(10/1/2011)—— 88

If there’s any oak on this wine, it doesn’t show. What does show up is crisply clean acidity and brilliantly ripe pineapple, lime and honeysuckle flavors, brightened with crisp acidity. It’s a lovely cocktail sipper, and nice with bruschetta and olive or mushroom tapenade.——S.H.(9/1/2010)—— 88

Angeline is one of the best second labels in California, in this case from Martin Ray. This ’08 Sauvignon smacks of ripe, tangy Asian pear, gooseberry, fig, green melon, vanilla and spice flavors brightened by wonderfully crisp acidity. Just beautiful, and a nice bargain at this price.——S.H.(8/1/2009)—— 90
