Surrounded by ripping vintages the 14 is often overlooked but this is a ripper. So lithe and pure. Florality, raw almond, red fruits, slight leather and anise. Lacey tannins and watery acidity. Ripper — 6 years ago

Lovely nose of wet earth, mineral, damson berry fruit, light color, very Pinot color, and very Pinot nose. Such finesse. Lacey and delicate with lively acidity and nice tart fruit. Big cherries here. So clean and clear. Almost evaporates on the palate. Terrific velvety and elegant tannins. Lovely showing. — 7 years ago

Great balance of weighty fruit/non-fruit character, textural richness, and bright acidity. So open knit and generous right now. Seamless. Deep stone fruit and baked pommaceous notes, zippy ripe citrus, lacey tones of nuts, flowers, honey, and brioche. Deeply mineral throughout. So delicious and perfect accompaniment with our meal. — 8 years ago

Needs to warm up and get some air time, but when it does it's a wine of notable delicacy and purity. Lively nose of bright lemon-lime, underripe peach, and river stones. Soft and lacey textured, it's quite pure tasting and has a growing chalky minerality in the finish. Very good acidity. Have to remark on the color too, which is a really luminous light green/gold. Distinctive. — 8 years ago

This is one of the most purely delicious spirits I've tasted in quite some time. Bourbon-like vanilla and cherry aromas, prevalent chocolate in the middle and roasted corn at the end. Alcoholic, but smooth on the palate w/ more of that bourbon corn and butterscotch. Very cool product!! Hope to see its return! — 9 years ago

Bright, lifted, focused and almost lacey in its feel. Great charm and drinkability and true to place and vintage. Of course the hallmark crisp red fruits followed by a very mineral backbone. There’s lots of sous bois coming through, turned earth, beets, wet leaves, underbrush, forest floor, licorice and flowers. — 5 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

Very floral, fragrant lovely nose. Plush and lacey with flinty undertones. Texturally complex and phenolic on the palate. — 7 years ago

9.3

Perfumed, fresh, lifted. Considerable finesse to this wine, elegant with light extract and focused on purity. Nose is spiced; potpourri, cracked green peppercorns, herbs de Provence, menthol, bayleaf, dried flower petals. The fruit is lacey and somewhat brambly. Palate is savory in its spice and mineral notes. The tannins are youthful but show great finesse for how young this is and the vintage. — 8 years ago

Lacey and high toned. Tangy and tart. Candied lime, lemon grass, aloe, peach, crushed rocks. A certain amount of finesse to it that will only enhance with time. Beautiful wine — 8 years ago

There is nothing I love more than this wine sometimes. There is a comfortable familiarity to this wine. It bursts from this glass with lavender, minerals, honey, verbena, chamomile and peaches. The palate is loosey goosey and precise with lacey and elegant texture before firming up with intense acid structure and depth. What a wine. What a value. — 9 years ago

What a nose. Singing! Huge red cherry fruit. So perfumed. Floral. A hint of earth and some mesmerizing spice. A nose one can smell over and over and over. It’s just insane. Juicy and complex with stunning acidity and freshness and a lacey, lean, silken structure. So elegant and such fine fine tannins. Amazingly long finish with awesome acidity and brilliant balance. Just a stunning, stunning wine. Such sweetness and sappiness all at the same time. Amazingly pure. While very good now this has a bright future. — 6 years ago

Roses, red fruits, tarragon, pomegranate molasses, red liquorice, touch of leather, rusty nails and slight earthy yeasty complexity. Medium plus acid. Medium just plus Lacey tannin. Doesn’t build. Amaro finish. — 7 years ago

Wow. What a nose. I love Riottes. What a nose. Glorious. Nutty, big cherry, spice, flowers, so aromatic. Perfumed. Even a sweetness. Gorgeous. Lacey and elegant palate with sap and deep dark cherry fruit. Terrific sweetness and grip. Very mineral and substantial. Even refined. Brilliant 11.! — 7 years ago

Old vine, own rooted pinot. A lot of aroma/taste memory from the 2016 vintage during ferm. Pure dark fruit with lacey earth notes. Vibrant with very balanced structure. — 8 years ago

I do enjoy a good Syrah from good ol' Washington. Soft nose for a Syrah, typical notes of gamey grilled meat, herbs, and nutmeg spices. Less oaky than previous vintages which I liked, exhibiting ripe blueberries, cocoa, dried herbs, and a smooth lacey tannin to the finish. Good value in the $20 department, but I think I'd enjoy a Croze-Hermitage for the same money a little more. Goes well with a good burger though! — 8 years ago

Like a fresh bowl of dark sour cherries on the nose. Cranberry and some spice. Palate is lush and lacey with dynamic pure fruit. Palate staining. Terrific freshness and purity. What a value. Love this. Not complex but just joyful. — 9 years ago
