Very much in the style of the Sandhi wines from Santa Barbara. Touch of flint, matchstick, lemon pie and cream. #oregon #chardonnay #eolaamityhills

Takes a few hours to open. Amazing complexity. We missed some of the action because of our general excitement but last sips were incredible. Can’t wait for the next tasting !

A cloak of (perfectly ripe) fruit, minerals, and saline hang on a beam of acidity. Plenty going on, best to give it a couple years in my opinion let the youngster settle down a little- it will always be lively.

Lemon pie, faint creaminess, nice acid. Excellent wine built for time. Prob wouldn’t revisit for several years. I’ve had this with a decade on it and it’s incredible. This is the ‘19.

Nice oak and minerality, earthy aroma. I would definitely like to enjoy this wine again.

About as good as white wine gets.

Brioche, salt air, and river stones on the nose. Racy minerality and acidity make this very Chablis-like. Zesty citrus, apricot, nectarine, peach pit. All supported by great minerality. Solid effort.
