I wrote and deleted two tasting notes for failure to capture the essence. Honestly, if you don't love this wine, you are a bad person, and you and I should not hang out. Ever. — 10 years ago

2013 Sauvignon Blanc from a hot Rogue Valley vineyard. Possibly Oregon's first Fume Blanc. Round and rich. Barrel aged for two weeks. Delicious and clean. — 11 years ago

“The 2009 Ramey Syrah Rodgers Creek Vineyard… offers up knockout aromatics of blackberry, salted meats, wild herbs, and pepper on the nose. This is followed by a full-bodied, classically styled and structured Syrah that possesses a concentrated, yet elegant feel, integrated acidity, and blockbuster length on the finish.”
- Jeb Dunnuck, The Rhone Report, March 2013

Our Syrahs are grown in the cool climate of the Sonoma Coast, which offers a style reminiscent of the Northern Rhone regions of Hermitage and Cornas. The Rodgers Creek is co-fermented with 9% Viognier and 25% whole grape clusters, leading to aromas and flavors of smoked meat, white pepper, green olive and grapefruit. After two to two and a half years in 100% new French oak barrels sur lies, it is lightly fined with egg whites for greater suppleness and bottled without filtration. — 12 years ago

2004 #sonomacoast #cabernetsauvignon + #syrah grown above the fog line = warm days, cool nights. Vines grown together, co-fermented. Both bright & tannic, savory and dark fruit. Day 2 better yet. Thanks, Darek! — 10 years ago

Nice acidity and finish, a bit two note but lovely, enjoyable wine. It would probably be enhanced with food. — 11 years ago

Great Pinot noir. First time we had it was backpacking outside Golden, CO. It was delicious in the woods and also cleaned up nicely for a special dinner for two in Boulder. — 12 years ago

Pot roast wine number two. Young, juicy, exuberant. On the second day the structure and non-fruit components peek out shyly from around the corner, hinting at what's to come with a little patience. QPR steal. — 10 years ago
