Just a solid, smooth Pinot. Not like an Oregon Pinot, but more St. Rita central coast. Not spicy at all. This would pair with salmon or scallops. — a year ago

A very solid wine for being so young. We had the 2020 vintage. Pear and lemon, a bit of vanilla overtones. This wine can stand up being combined with red meat and pork. Rideau is famous for their Viognier wines, so the winemaker knows how to put it all together. — 3 years ago

8.9

This wine is essentially one of our “house wines”. House wine is not very expensive, it is very drinkable and also flexible with different cuisines. Tonight we made fish tacos from scratch. Beautiful, mango salsa with halibut. This wine paired up very well. It picked up the cilantro and avocado overtones of the food. Some pear, charcoal, and earthy flavors. A bit dry, not too much and can stand up to spice. — 3 years ago

9.0

Pair this wine with crab and oysters. Will play well above where it is. However, where it is: a very drinkable, basic, French wine, that will not fry a hole in your crypto account. — 3 years ago
