  March 20, 2016 - A very good So. OR Syrah with more red fruits and acidity than most Syrahs. Don't see it getting any better.

  December 4, 2014 - Not as much grip as the 2008, but a well balanced, easy drinking wine. Folin, in my opinion is one of the top producers in Southern Oregon.

  November 23, 2013 - Folin Cellars with Henry’s Diner: Winemaker Dinner (Folin Cellars, Carlton Tasting Room): Chewy, gamey and smoky. This is showing harmony on the ripe fruit and earthy finish.

  February 9, 2013 - Wine tasting in the Willamette Valley, showcasing Dundee Hills and Southern Oregon (Dundee Hills and Carlton, Oregon): Chock-full dazzling spiced black currants, blackberries and cooking herbal aromas. On the palate is a strong similarity to Côte Rôtie meets CDP to be geographically specific. This syrah is a stunner; marvelously balanced bright berry acids, pork cracklings, white pepper and wild thyme. Finishes rich and buttery as it glides beyond the last sip.
