Changes your perspective on Pinot Gris! Bright pale gold color. Finely knit and creamy, juicy peach, ripe pear, ripe smoky tropical fruit, and a nutty, salty finish that just goes on and on. Elegant, balanced, and well-structured. — 7 years ago

I’m in heaven, oh so heaven! Pale gold color, liquid sunshine. Stone fruit, luscious peaches, lemon curd, honeysuckle, steely minerality. Racy acidity with just the slightest hint of petrol on the finish. — 8 years ago

High acidity, racy. Notes of honeysuckle, juicy green apple, stone fruit, hints of salinity and minerality. Off-dry. Mouthwateringly delicious. I love that the winemaking process is focused on the vineyard with minimal intervention. — 8 years ago

Deep purple color. Delicate hints of violet, baking spices, on the nose. Velvety stewed plums, cassis, blackberry, herbaceous, slight spiciness. Long finish with medium plus tannins. The fruit is there but seems held back yet. This could age for several more years and get even better. Perfect with Lamb Bolognese! — 8 years ago

Holy fruit! Loads of unusual black and blue fruit such as blackberries and blueberries, hint of cinnamon spice on the back end. Deep purple color. Medium to medium plus acidity. Firm tannins, light oak, long silky finish. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petite Sirah, Sangiovese. Not bad! — 8 years ago
