  Robert Craig, Howell Mountain, Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 The nose combines the best of California’s fruit with Bordeaux’s leafiness.

  TasteWine — Authority: 138
  Folie a Deux, Napa Valley, Sauvignon Blanc 2007 This is a Sauvignon that smells quite pretty, blending flowers with citrus fruits.  In the mouth the citrus story continues, with some thickness, perhaps a touch of RS adding fatness and a little viscosity – nice.
