This aged Oregon Chardonnay is still showing quite well, some honeyed aromas, but solid fruit and acidity, a medium-long finish, this is the first of 6 bottles I found in a box with non-Chardonnays, how well this is showing tonight gives me hope it will continue to drink well for a few more years, kudos to Mark Vlossak!! — 7 days ago

Master class… One of the top five chards ever tasted by me from Virginia… imagine making the statement at 8+ yrs rest!?!? phenomenal mouth and structure. Palate is an Orchestra of Beethoven’s caliber. Lemon curd + vanilla + Sweet Oak and acidic structure. Phenomenal!!. — a month ago

At Jack Fry’s in Louisville, challenged to pair wine with salmon, pork, and gnocchi. This worked well. “Soft” according to one friend. — 4 months ago

My first wine I’ve ever tasted from Moldova. Jancis Robinson reviewed it in Financial Times January 27 2023. Tasting and decanting now… purple, very good clarity. Aromas of leather (wood) and strawberry, flavors of strawberry and cherry with wood, light to moderate seed and skin tannins on finish. Light bodied but solid tannin structure. Needs at least 60 minutes to decant. 24 hours later, tasting really well, some real character. A worthy red table wine — 4 years ago

2018 Smooth, rich, lush. Great value and lingering full-mouth finish. Hint of jammy berries on the taste and just a great warm climate red from there. Would buy it again and again in a heartbeat. — 6 years ago

Initially a bit closed, after two hours in the decanter this really opens up. Black cherry and sage come through on the nose and continue onto the palate with additional notes of cassis, bay leaf, and cloves. Has a persistent finish with herbs, spice, and black tea lingering on the palate. The herbal and spice flavors were really vibrant when paired with basil pesto pasta and mushrooms. Medium+ acidity, medium+ body, and medium tannins. This is the 2021 vintage. — 4 months ago
