Wow, an excellent Syrah, well balanced, lovely bouquet, white/black pepper, fine tannins on the mid-pallet, long finish, northern Rhône in style, fruit from Shake Ridge (Anne Kramer), so well made. — 7 years ago

A pleasure. Fair price. Good minerality taste even though I am told the human sensory system cannot "taste" mineral. See Matt Kramer. — 8 years ago

I get a kick out of Kramer Vineyards showcasing the hybrid Carmine grape, mated from Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, and Merlot. This Rosé from a cold Oregon vintage is juicy, unexpectedly floral like a bit of Colombard snuck in (but it didn't), and a li'l spiced w earthy masala spices, especially whiffs of cinnamon. Lamb meatballs alfresco on the patio would be so nice! — 8 years ago

Bubbles Fest 2015 @ Anne Amie - Kim Kramer is elevating the sparkling game in Oregon and this is another example of really cool winemaking. It's not classic champagne or anything similar, but just interesting and tasty. Drink up — 9 years ago

On the nose, slightly candied fruits of; dark cherries, strawberries, black raspberries, pomegranate & cranberries. Vanilla, soft spice, limestone minerals, dry top soil and fresh, fragrant red florals. On the palate, ripe & slightly candied fruits; strawberries, black raspberries, pomegranate & cranberries. Nice soft spice, light intensity of baking spices, nice chalkiness, limestone minerals, a little dark turned earth, great acidity and a rich, round, well polished finish.

I'm on location at #IPNC this year, and have been invited to attend a private tasting at Domaine Serene with winemaker, Erik Kramer. The 2012 Evenstad is, like all of their wines, a study in refinement and purity, with a deep inner perfume of rose petals, dust, forest floor and spice underpinned by alpine strawberries and red forest berries. Pitch-perfect acidity and just the right amount of toast to frame it—spicier notes re-emerge on the finish, with a touch of white pepper adding lift and complexity. — 9 years ago

'99. Last bottle. The best Sagratino the we've had thus far. Iris, the Something, gave us a great story and history to accompany the wine. Almost like having Matt Kramer at dinner. — 9 years ago

Delightfully aged Oregon Pinot. My in-laws made this. Just a disclaimer. It's aged amazingly well. — 10 years ago

That is some commitment to bust out dual TTB approvals. Worth it though. That is a summer sipping beauty. And I would love it with a side of paella. "Have you ever had really good paella?" Kramer — 7 years ago

2010 vintage. Lovely aromatic nose with high pitched notes. Palate with sweet beetroot and plum. Voluptuous enough to suggest Central Otago if tasted blind. Soft tannins with medium acid. Giving enough personality but also room to develop. I remember reading an article by Matt Kramer a few years ago where he suggested that Sonoma Pinot Noir had gone ahead of Oregon in his opinion. — 9 years ago

Dangerously drinkable. Juicy yet dry, just the way I like it. — 9 years ago

Fun and pleasingly luscious, this sparkling Pinot Gris hit all the right notes: supple beginnings, pears & quince in the body, taut acidity to refresh the palate at finish. Just do it! — 9 years ago
