Striking purity, range, and depth! Notes of citrus, white currant, gooseberry, and herbs. Riveting tension! Delightful expression of variety in place, unencumbered by excessive timber treatment. This bottle had life ahead of it. 95-96.

Tasted over three days. Consistent with previous note. Gooseberry, kumquat, pear, citrus, shale, kelp, and a certain brininess appear prominently on the bouquet and palate. Bracing structure, mouthwatering, palate-cleansing, and ridiculously long. Among the best Chardonnays I have tasted and decidedly the most enjoyable. Stunning and delicious! 95-96.

A tremendous and utterly mind-bending wine. Tasted over three days. Had it for Chardonnay but couldn't settle on a place. This wine features ridiculous concentration, rippin' acids, and stunning texture that both play with and gracefully dance across the palate; the Perfect Wine Storm if you will. Incredibly interesting. Stupid value! 95-96.

Probably the best Chard I have tasted. Crisp, pineapple with a perfect acid balance. Nice stony, mineral aspects that led to profound length. This is an Oregon Chard folks..and it's not an oak bomb. Find it. Buy it. You will not be disappointed
