Flowers, citrus, green apple, pure Blanc de Blanc, extra brut & no malo. — 10 years ago
Love the expression of both terrior and fruit coming from the Celilo Vineyard. Neatly situated at the lip of the Columbia River in the cool Columbia Gorge where Washington and Oregon meet. Striking acidity that is approaching exuberant but holds itself well with the dominant ripe tropical fruit. Crisp and velvety with some subtle "malo". Neutral oak which is more perceivable near room temp still shows a great deal of restraint. Definitely one of the more fascinating Chards I've had in a long time and I can't wait to see what depth age brings to this wine. @Matt Austin — 10 years ago
Oak, butter, nice malo. Boozey on the nose but hidden well on the palate. — 10 years ago
Non-malo, Pinot-based, old barrels. Ripping acidity, green apple and lemon rind giving way slightly to yeasty, toasty flavors with air, ultimately some hints of caramel and red fruits. — 10 years ago
Wow. Deep, massively extracted Barbera. Wasn't expecting this. Aromatic, with bright acid though, and funk. Could be mind blowing in 5 years. 2011. And 15% abv. — 10 years ago
No malo. Almost no oak. Delicious. — 10 years ago
Really great Chardy! But a whisper of oak, decent malo and a great long finish. A great stand alone wine or perfect with a light dish. — 10 years ago
