January 18, 2024 - I was expecting more secondary flavor development, but what I taste is muted primary. I don't think this aged quite as well as expected. Drink now.
April 7, 2022 - Baked apple, anise. Balanced.
March 27, 2022 - Crisp, dry Chardonnay, with plenty of well-integrated oak. It’s a hard one to place - not really Burgundian, certainly not Californian, I don’t know if I’d naturally arrive at Oregon, but it’s really a fabulous wine. Elegant.
December 17, 2021 - I clearly didn't like the last bottle I had 2 years ago, but now I'm actually digging it in its more mature phase. I wouldn't let it go much longer, but the baby fat has integrated and it's much more structured and angular now. Went well with chicken shawarma. Drink up.
July 17, 2021 - Balanced, complexity, good fruit, wine has developed nicely but I would drink up, drank easily, drank with whole wheat pasta with clam sauce and fried calamari, prosciutto with melon, last bottle, would drink again.
February 20, 2021 - Nice, somewhat restrained style new world Chardonnay. Definetly a food wine. I did not find the oak invasive, but a good balance to this wines other structural qualities.
November 26, 2020 - A pronounced nose of peach, cooked apple, and pear. The nose hints at sweetness but there is joke - this is bone dry and crisp. The oak lingers in the finish, though with pleasant fruit and white flowers.
November 22, 2020 - Somewhat ambivalent, golden color, simple bouquet, very balanced but oak does stand out a bit, medium acidity, good fruit, lacks complexity, wine has not developed as well as I would have hoped, mellow finish, drank with whole wheat spaghetti with clam sauce with kale, will drink again as I have another bottle.
October 4, 2020 - Bread, green apples, ginger with a long finish and great acidity. Don't drink too cold.
September 4, 2020 - Consistent with prior notes. Best served cold.
