  February 8, 2021 - I think this is my first wine from this producer. This has held up surprisingly well. Has a tertiary mature quality to the fruit, but there's still some lively citrus and strawberry notes. Hints of barnyard funk, mushroom, and earth add richness. Just a hint of dryness on the palate cluing in to maturity. Earthy mushroom finish. Very solid, probably at/slightly past peak but aging gracefully.

  Dusty old lady here. Her aromas and mouth feel were lithe initially. It did pick up weight after a few hours in the bottle. Very little tannin. The short to medium length finish was clipped. I think this is on its way out. A nice wine that shows that a Willamette Valley bottling can go 10+ years.
  
  Drink up if you have em.
