December 18, 2017 - Drank this last night, and probably have to admit that it was past its best moment. Nonetheless, it retains a nice acidity, traces of stone fruits, and waxy texture in the style of an aged CdP or southern Rhone white. Highlight of the wine was the honey notes brought out with the aging. Perfect for pairing with sushi. Even the wasabi and soy sauce just brought out the texture and honey notes.

July 9, 2016 - Another short review since I drank this a few hours ago without taking notes. Lovely florals on the nose and stone fruits on the palate. Perfectly balanced and refreshing.

August 13, 2015 - Agree with everything Loren said. I don't drink too many whites but this one is really nice. Tropical fruit and honey on the nose. A little sweetness on the finish but not overly sweet. Nice patio sipper

November 9, 2014 - An evening with friends and a lot of wine (Chris and Renee's Home): This is from Oregon and while I don't know the varietals, this drinks like another Rhone wine. Perhaps because this is young and from a bit cooler climate though, I really liked this. When I quit spitting and went back for a glass later in the evening, this was my choice. The nose is quite aromatic. Lovely white flower qualities on the nose with some peaches. This again does not have much acidity, but it drinks so fresh that it awakens my palate. There is some rs I believe but it doesn't detract from the wine. It probably adds to the lush body. Nice finish. Really a nice wine.
