in line with the other reviews. An exceptional wine maker, doing everything from planting to pruning to winemaking. Very small production. Opened the bottle about an hour before consuming every last drop. Quite delicious. An exceptional example of Oregon Pinot Noir.  — 4 months ago
Reminded me more of a Willamette Pinot than a traditional Russian River Valley. More earth tones then berry, lighter color but still a high alcohol level. Definitely having again. — 5 months ago
Barrel proof. It’s hot. Yum. — 4 months ago
Excellent masculine Pinot Noir that reminds me of a Gevrey-Chambertin. And it is reasonably priced. A great value at $31. This is a Pinot Noir for steak or lamb, not pizza, but I drank it with pizza and still enjoyed it. — 5 months ago
Wow what a nice surprise for a Santa Cruz Mtn Chardonnay. Ripe stone fruits and secondary tropical notes. Soft, limestone like texture but definitely not grown anywhere near limestone!
Soft-round acidity.
Hilltop estate vineyard looking over Stanford and Silcon Valley planted in 1978.
As much as I like it's trying to punch above it's weight at a $85 retail — 4 months ago

Very muted in the nose… hardly anything at first, fresh saltiness, barely a hint of green apple & lemon peel. And yet, fresh & enticing.
And then, on the palate this sings! Simply beautiful! With a touch of roundness & creaminess on the palate but also vibrant acidity, salinity, stony minerality. Ripe yellow apple & lemon. Vibrant, juicy and quite complex. Great depth & length.
A benchmark for Chablis & delish! — a month ago
