This pet has a great dessertif aspect to it, with actual alcohol, rather than just sweet ruby port notes. Delicious and a great pairing port. — 9 years ago

Baller Gruner, notes of honey, kaffir lime, fresh flowers, fresh pears, subtle toast, with bracing acidity and a laser like finish. Still a baby but enjoyable now, better in 5-7 and beyond! — 10 years ago

A bit of a surprise. This was a wine we bought on our California trip in 2013. Prager is mostly known for port, and it can be quite expensive, so we opted for this Petite Sirah, even though we didn't get to taste it. I was expecting a more extracted, jammy wine, but was met instead with something more structured and substantial. The nose is showing its 10 years in the bottle a little with some cigar box, and maybe a little fresh paint. Definitely still a surprising amount of tannins present as well as some black pepper. TL;DR This was a better than expected wine.

I think these wines are out of the insanely ripe and partially botrytised zone they were in in the '05-'10 era. The new wines, are poised, fresh, but man is there still a lot of horse power under the hood. Not as squeaky clean as F.X. Pichler or Prager, and the better for it. — 11 years ago

Wow, this shows the extreme difference between botrytis infected👎(inflected) 👎wines and non. Last night, 97 knoll, Gruner Smargd. Tonight, 97 Prager Riesling Smargd ( non botrytis inflected/ infected)
What a frickin delish non infected wine. Prager; absolutely gorgeous after 18 years! Bright yellow with incredible depth of fruit while still having amazing acidity at this age. The Knoll , While drinkable, was past its prime.

Best domestic Grüner I've ever had. Lots of green, ripe citrus and orchard fruits, lees influence, and varietal savories (lentil, radish, parsnip, pea purée). 12.7% alcohol puts this in ripe, clean federspiel territory. Similar to Prager or FX in style. There's something special in the Columbia Gorge, I think. Anyone know if this is loess over decomposed basalt in the vineyard? — 10 years ago

I don't know the soil composition, but e-mail the Mantones via their website. They are among the most accommodating people you come across & would be thrilled to answer questions. Their entire lineup of wines is worth checking out. Agree in full about the magic of the Columbia Gorge.
