1/27/24, 10:58 AM - Thanks for the note. I’m guessing the 55 point score is a typo?
10/29/23, 1:16 PM - Judging from your note, I'm guessing you didn't mean to mark it flawed?
8/11/23, 5:21 PM - I’m guessing, is 83 points is a typo?
2/21/23, 4:50 PM - Are you sure you have the right bottling? This is not a rosé Champagne.
9/21/22, 2:23 PM - How much did you pay for it?
4/25/21, 8:24 AM - While 2016 was indeed the last year for the regular Momtazi bottling, Kelley made the Ahurani from all Momtazi fruit along with the Momtazi “Tir” bottling in 2017. The latter is well worth seeking out. Cheers.
11/7/20, 4:49 PM - You'll be pleased to know that everything from 2016 onward is bottled under cork. The screw caps came from sharing space with Scott Paul, where she was winemaker until 2014. Cheers.
10/30/20, 7:18 PM - I’ve had it both ways with the ‘16 Foillard. Some bottles have been mesmerizing, others merely correct and utterly forgettable. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
10/30/20, 7:23 AM - What a bummer. Do you mind sharing the importer listed on the bottle?
7/2/20, 2:37 PM - Do you mind sharing the importer on your bottle?
5/15/20, 8:13 PM - You sure it wasn't a 2013? I've found a candied quality to a number of 2013s from Oregon and many people (myself included) have reported fizzy bottles from that vintage. Regardless, it sounds like maybe you had an off bottle.

9/13/19, 9:40 PM - I'm guessing the 97pt score is a typo then?
5/24/19, 9:31 AM - Brett is certainly tricky because people have varying tolerance for it, levels can vary significantly from bottle to bottle, and unlike other wine faults, many hold the opinion that at low enough levels, it can improve a wine.I personally don't pay much attention to scores, but it does seem that by your own rationale, you should mark the bottle flawed.
2/21/19, 7:43 AM - Your score of 80 seems at odds with your note. Typo?
10/14/18, 10:33 AM - Reading your note, I'm guessing you didn't mean to mark the bottle flawed?
11/5/17, 1:51 PM - John goes from barrel to tank before bottling, but since he works alone, I doubt he processes everything in one pass. So it’s certainly possible that environmental conditions or just different barrel lots could lead to bottle variation.
9/13/17, 9:42 AM - Scott and Kelley were still at the helm when this was made - the winery changed owners in September 2014 and Kelley left in April 2015.I think a lot of 2013s are just closed down right now.
3/10/16, 11:47 AM - Have you checked another bottle and would you mind sharing where you sourced it from?
4/27/16, 9:30 AM - Excellent. Thanks for the follow-up!
8/7/15, 7:09 AM - Absolutely, no rush at all. Cheers.
