Light straw colour with notes of bread, lemon, pear, apricot and white flower on the nose. Lively and ample mousse with a bright acidity. On the palate, lemon, tart green apple, unripe pear, white peach with some chalk and wet stone minerality. Long finish with a lemon zing and brioche. Very enjoyable but still very young and will be awesome in another 5 years! — 4 years ago
medium reddish purple, medium tears; cherry, raspberry, vanilla, hints of smoke and cloves; red fruit, bitter chocolate, long finish; medium body, high acidity, light tannins, 13.9% ABV; this is the biggest production and lowest priced of all the winery's vineyard designates, real bargain from a classic Willamette Valley vineyard; $37 — 6 years ago
A full-body Pinot! Deep Ruby with berry aromas, floral and garden spice. On the palate ripe strawberry and dried cherry fruit with vanilla spice and cedar notes. The wine is well structured, silky smooth tannins, balanced acidity carry the wine to a lingering spicy finish. Very Nice! — 7 years ago
Wow. A new world Pinot that isn't over fruited to death? GREAT Willamette valley wine, went with duck perfectly. — 8 years ago
Dan Goldfield always said he preferred to drink his Rued Vineyard Chardonnay after 5 years and now I can see why. Everything is balanced and in place. Flowers, lemon peel and touch of vanilla. — 8 years ago
Light and bright. A little too light for me. Black fruit. Red cherry. Not as robust as previous vintages, if I recall correctly but still solid. Loring consistently delivers. — 9 years ago
Crushable. Great summertime wine. — 10 years ago

Bought this in 2014 from Lsat Bottle. Should have bought more, it was a steal at the time and it has gotten even better in the last 5 years. Not too acidic, good amount of yeast, and overall excellent sparkling wine. 69% Pinot Noir, 31% Chardonnay — 7 years ago

Really enjoy this one. Lots going on. — 11 years ago
Medium ruby core, garnet rim . More leafy and crunchy cassis, slightly foursquare , cooler slightly mint touches . Crunchy dark fruits on the palate , more tobacco , cedar , grafite notes , fills out on the palate pretty well. Good refreshing acidity , moderate quite fine tannins, slight green notes on the ok length . Good to drink now and probably won’t improve very much , now and over the next 10 years. — 3 years ago

Rich and interesting with a little bit of a funk, but still feels elevated. Young wines are good but it does mellow nicely with some aging in bottle. — 7 years ago
Consistently delicious and great value in Grand Cru Blanc de Blanc Champagne.
Fresh, reductive, lively on the palate. Green apple, lemon, lime zest, baguette crust, pineapple, white peach, lanolin, cream, perfect chalk & minerality, yellow & white florals, beautiful acidity and rich polished finish that persists.

Enjoyable Cabernet Franc. Nice red and blueberry fruit with green pepper and olive. Earthy with pronounced barnyard, which faded by the second day. Well balanced. Not overly complex. — 8 years ago
A surprisingly great red - as others have said. A very drinkable wine, but of smokiness to it, bold and quite red fruity. — 9 years ago
Pear and green apple on the nose, almond butter, and caramel glazed toast on the palate. Beautiful. — 10 years ago
About as close to Condrieu as I've seen Cali get. Lots of gardenias and tropicals mixed with a classic peachiness and solid structure. — 11 years ago

Awesome table wine — 13 years ago

Excellent on a stand alone basis or in mimosas!! Slight brioche, caramel, butter, and a hint of apricot. Just as good at bottle opening as it was a couple hours later! — 3 years ago
