  May 6, 2023 - Luis goes to Cahill Bistro: Drank a small glass over an hour. Lots of oak, lemon, cream, tropical fruit. This was big and not excessive.

  May 4, 2023 - Another Great Luis Tasting! (Cahill Bistro): This has come a long way and is peaking now, at least for my palate. Rich, creamy mouthfeel that just seduces you from the start! Lots of creamy pear and notes of apple and butterscotch, also hints of tropical fruit and chalk. An excellent Oregon Chardonnay in a great place....drink up! Easy 93!

  September 28, 2021 - Light hints of butter, oak and tropical fruit. Beautiful juice and long lasting finish. Delicious Chardonnay in a great window right now.

  August 1, 2021 - Upon the opening, the cork was cracked and had black spots. On the nose—lemon, grass, unripe bananas, menthol, inorganic smell—like paint or plastic.
  On the mouth—lemony with high acidity. Sour notes from the beginning, with a slight hint of bitterness mid palate and sour notes again at the end. A full bodied wine with viscosity. I don’t think this a graceful wine. It didn’t pair well with anything and it doesn’t taste that great by itself. Disappointing considering this is their “signature” Chardonnay. 75
