October 18, 2013 - DBP's note pretty well nailed it. This wine has body, complexity, balance and an overall "yum" factor that makes it hard to put down the glass.

May 26, 2013 - Willamette Valley for Memorial day weekend and a peak at 2012; 5/25/2013-5/26/2013: Impressive spicy minerality on the nose, but generally things are pretty light overall. Impressive palate, with soft, luscious texture. Good ripe acidity coats the palate with a nice flavor of melon and the pulpy vein of an orange. Very thick texture and great minerality. The finish offers an eruption of ripe lemon peel with a huge squirt of meaty lemon. Fantastic initial flavor after swallowing that is a little surprisingly juicy after those lean palate flavors. Good lingering minerality here too. Could this be this good? Look to open a bottle soon.
