such a funny experiment in expectation vs reality - if this was a chardonnay i wouldn't have batted an eye, but given that i was expecting something adjacent to muscadet this was a revelation. rich, textured citrus with a soft mineral core. opened up beautifully offering more and more fruit over time. would be perfect with some ricotta, mortadella and focaccia. — a year ago

To be honest, if this was placed in a blind-tasting, I can see it being mistaken for a Burgundy. The nose is a savory herb garden intermingling with crushed violets, peppered with spice and cedar. Soft and lithe on the entry with a focused arrow of acidity on the backend, Hyland glides onto the palate with fresh cranberries, orange peel, and pomegranates and finishes in fresh mushrooms and peppercorn. The tannins unfold from powdery into a sexy swash. Pretty and cellar-worthy. — 7 years ago

From a cool, windswept, 2.5 acre plot in McMinnville. A Pinot and Nebbiolo lover’s Syrah. High acid with taut, nervy red fruits. Pair with pomegranate chicken or a Thanksgiving feast. More than anything needs lots of ignoring for a good while. Drink 2025-2040. — 9 months ago

Super mineral nose with discreet framing oak. Lemon flesh. Some rainer cherries. Saline and iodine. Subtle yet focused and incredibly complex nose. Such nice earth and mineral tones. Smells like Burgundy of yesteryear. Palate is so lean, salty and concentrated with a lingering hint of complex sweetness from the wood on the incredibly persistent finish. So juicy and leaning on the palate and just laser focused. So long. This has much more to give and has closed down a bit since I tasted it last. But a stunner. I’ll be back as it airs.

After 4 hours this is a wonder and has opened beautifully. Clear barely ripe granny smith apple, stunning mineral breadth and some white flowers. Palate is so juicy and saline. Luscious. It’s loosened up quite a bit. Long, structured finish. Super juicy. Fantastic. — 2 years ago
