100 on the winary. tobacco, grass, freshly shorn sheep, galena, iron oxide, grapes, raspberry, a faint whiff of yellow birch bark, tangerine, notes of washed agate. maybe a fleeting gossamer thread of elderberry — 6 years ago
Toby Hill crafts a delicate Pinot Noir with a Burgundian ethos that speaks to the essence of site. This captures all the classic elements of the Cerise Vineyard, a site that remains a personal favorite. Rose petal, raspberries and cream, crushed minerals and salt, and of course its namesake tart red cherry flavors form a gossamer, ethereal wine that feels lighter than air. A taste of Chambolle in the Anderson Valley. — 7 years ago
Still too young but amazing nose of tobacco, jalapeño, but a little heady. Light, almost gossamer texture but doesn't like intensity. Plums, black currant, anise, black cherry, and lots of length lead into some still grainy yet soft tannins. Tasty — 8 years ago
The ascendancy of Thierry Germain is complete! A wine of incredible clarity and finesse delivering layers of complex scents and flavors on a gossamer thread (12.5%!). — 9 years ago
#Keller #Riesling #Kabinett "#Hipping" (#Auction)--as Klaus Peter poured me this remarkable wine, he said, "This is Maria's wine!" I believe him... what a treasure to mark the birth of your daughter! Sourced from red clay soils on the slopes of #Nierstein overlooking the #Rhein... extremely opulent, explosive aromas, packed with power, but also such finesse... reminiscent of a lovely Mosel Riesling. The balance is uncanny... so elegant, gossamer, the essence of spring. Like a beautiful Monarch butterfly!

Very light body. The wine feels fleeting in my mouth, slipping out of reach. Ripe cherries, gossamer tannins, acidity with the utmost refinement. Almost a spritual experience. — 9 years ago
Wine #400 goes to the man who broke my bank account and also the man who introduced me to the power of white Burgundy. You have the Lafon and Roulot’s of the world and then you have Leroux. the guy is able to create the right balance between the silky gossamer feel of white burgundy and the high salinity profile I get with some New age Cali coastal chardonnays. Leroux is someone I’d look out for and take his wines seriously. Between Mikulski and Leroux... you can’t find better bargains. — 5 years ago
Gorgeous nose. Spice, balsam, Damp earth, pine needle, raspberry and strawberry fruit. So aromatic. Layered and precise aromas. Excellent aromatic showing. Palate is ripe and juicy with wonderful balancing acidity and freshness. Lovely earthy sweetness and nice persistence. Gossamer like. — 7 years ago

Love. Soft, subtle, silky. Red fruits and a little spice, everything you know Bordeaux can do and enough weight that it's not mere gossamer in the glass or on the palate. — 8 years ago
Rhubarb, tart wild strawberry jam, gossamer texture and silky weight on the palate, long elegant finish, bright fruit and tertiary sherry-like quality at the same time — 9 years ago
Gossamer like qualities of stone fruit, lemon, and a touch of brett. Its backbone of acid makes this wine incredibly easy to drink. Paired with a spicy fish and rice dish. — 9 years ago
Bonkers showing. So ethereal and pretty with gossamer like strawberry and cranberry. Palate has a delicate Lacey like texture and lovely sweet fruit and elegant beautiful tannins. Rocking bottle. So ethereal and just like a red Riesling. A bottle to slam by yourself in 45 minutes. — 7 years ago
This is an amazing wine we found on our trip to Walla Walla for a nice relaxing weekend. This wine is crisp and has amazing flavors. — 9 years ago
Outstanding. Gossamer pale peach with honeyed highlights, expressing pure alpine air, catmint, dried honeycomb, white peach, cherubs tears, and meadow flowers. On the palate, it’s elegant and beautifully balanced, each note perfection, not unlike Vivaldi’s Le Quattro Stagioni, here is lilting, refined, pitch-perfect acidity set against a backdrop of dewy raspberries that extends to sweet saline-edged oblivion. — 9 years ago

Last bottle of this in my cellar😔ABV on the lighter side @ 12.5% but I prefer a demur wine in comparison to an unabashed one. Previous notes apply ,a gorgeous gossamer of a wine! — 5 years ago
