2017. Was really cool to have back to back Oregon pet-nat Rieslings with dinner at The Oven tonight! Both were great with food and enjoyed by all. — 5 years ago
This is an interesting and different blend but I can get behind it. It’s light but bursting with notes of citrus and cherry. Cranberries that “Linger” but no “Zombie.” (See what I did there?) — 6 years ago
A nice little crisp white for refreshment while I cook. — 7 years ago
Crisp and clean, more like a full bodied pinot gris than a Chardonnay. Nice, but I prefer notes of oak and butter over citrus and pear. — 5 months ago
Lovely....warm, baking spices, light tannins. Perfectly paired with Fall weather. — 6 years ago
YIKES! I definitely wasn’t expecting this. Positively explosive right out of the bottle. Power, minerality, enough acidity to remove two layers of enamel... but wow...the weight, the ripe juicy pear, honey-crisp, and musk melon fruit rolls over your tongue like Patton through Germany! The wine demands your attention—I involuntarily sneezed...but I wanted another mouthful...I needed another mouthful. This wine is far, far too young... but it’s simply brilliant...and will be for years. I can’t believe this is “lowly” Pinot Blanc.. and I can’t believe it’s from Oregon. Well done, Kelley! — 4 years ago
Lots of smokey char bacon flavor up front, I presume from the barrel. Smells a little of black licorice and dried black cherry, the black cherry flavor comes through when tasting. Maybe a little white pepper in the nose too and a little pepper in the finish. I'd happily put this in my belly. — 6 years ago
Look at all that yeast! Strawberry short cake, sourdough bread, beet lemonade. — 7 years ago
