Very easy drinking. Perfect for a hot, sunny day at the beach or near any body of water. Taste reminds me of a reality never known. The faint grasping at a distant memory. So deliciously fragrant on the nose. The palate opens up quickly to the greeting of smooth velvety red fruits, soon followed by a lemony zestful bitterness. The slightly tannic bitterness slumbers on the palate much longer than the silky suede seduction of cherry and Granny Smith. It dares you to take another sip, to revisit the memory before the bitterness set in. This push and pull makes for a delicious bottle that goes down quicker than you’d like. Soon the bottle is empty and you’re left with only the memory. Like a long day at the beach, you want to live in that moment forever, because you know that at the end of it, you’re left sandy, salt licked, and sun scorched. The greed of the moment is rarely a fair opponent.

Nose: pear, raspberry, overripe strawberry, lemon zest, thyme

What an amazing blend! Imagine your typical Gewürztraminer made subtle by its mixture with traditional Catalan varietals. I’ve found that certain meals—carbonara, some east Asian dishes, and blended soups—need a white wine in a tall, skinny bottle that doesn’t suck. This is it. — 2 months ago

Great balance of acidity, minerality and chalkiness that showcases terroir of Cotes de Blancs (specifically wine comes from Le Mesnil sur Oger and Lea Chetillions). Lemon zest, freshly baked bread toast and long, dry finish. — 3 months ago

This is a delicious PetS, not too jammy. It has intense blueberry and raspberry flavors, with that distinctive undertone, peculiar to Washington reds, and tastier than it sounds,, of chocolate-covered mushrooms. — a year ago

Sparking white gamay?! Weird, but fun. Relatively inexpensive! And oh so delicious and cool! Has a bready/yeast quality with some yellow apples, lemon, and lots of fine bubbles. Some salinity there as well. I think it’s a blast. — 6 months ago

Needed a few hours of air. Very tart fruit, pepper, earth, sage, outstanding. Feels young despite 11 years. Still one of the best ca wineries. — 4 months ago
