I can't improve on other comments. Better after about 15 min of airtime. Rather rich with good acid. Fairly golden color; not sure it will age to 2033, as suggested. No new vintages on CT, since the 2018 release.
(Served with pan-seared trout with butter, lemon, and thyme. Corn on the side. Nice combination.)

Sampled at the winery tasting room in McMinnville. Made from the grape of the Loire/Muscadet, this seems a bit of an intellectual curiosity to me. 85 cases made. Creamy with moderate acidity, green melon, pear and citrus notes. Pleasant enough but unremarkable compared to the better examples of Muscadet I have had.

Tasting pour at Eyrie. Bottle age bringing out some honey and butterscotch on the nose here; palate is slightly rich, creamy - warm lemon cream.
Would have paired wonderfully with the creamy Washington state oysters we had later that night at Dundee Bistro.

I really like this year. It is full of flavor and character. It is a real "oyster wine because you can still taste the sea"
