Very disappointing with very bashful almost non-existent nose and sour, tense, tart unbalanced mess. Cellared well in perfect conditions bought from Caveau & they way overhyped this wine and producer.

Very disappointing. Ideal storage conditions since purchase in private temp/humidity controlled environment. Not sure how GC grapes could yield an average wine. Two more bottles to try & hope for a miracle.

Excellent bottle of well crafted wine! Has it all: great savory white fruits, backing acidity, good mineral sense of place & nice length for a modest priced OR Chard!

As good as it gets from Westrey, an outstanding artisanal smaller Oregon producer. 2007 vintage a “divisive” vintage given severe weather challenges. The superior vintners made great wines from the cooler year, but sadly, many of Oregon’s still newer winemakers struggled. To my taste, the cooler vintages like 2007 really hyper vigilantly can offer the best of OR Pinot noir as it showcases the cooler grape with typicity of place, terroir & season. No big ass full bodied jammy juice without regard for soil, AVA, vineyard & winemakers delicate touch to create nectar of Oregon’s Wine Gods’! Well done David & Amy

Much improved over last bottle, but not quite a piercing, linear and complex as a 1er C-M Burg could be.

Well crafted 1er PM white Burg that paired well & a fave of The Willows Inn on Lummi Sommelier of the 8 wines we brought to accompany. I will thoughtvery very good, but 04 Bolli GA Rosé was another level, as too the 04 Pol Roger BDB as well the wine of year- the 92 Eyrie Southblock Pinot Noir! Other fine wines-too- 06 Pol Roger Rosé bubbles, Feve 09 Chablis Les Preuses, an Auslese & Heidseck 12 Rosé bubbles.

solid wine with crispness, minerality, nice hints of lemon, ginger and a touch of a tangerine bubble gum. I am getting to really like the Arneis wines of Italy especially compared to simple roses as this is much better Pinto Grigio Italian. Just is what it is, a refreshing straightforward crisp white with solid fruit, good mineral and acids.
