Tasting Notes, Current Releases

2007 10th Anniversary Pinot Gris: Clean, crisp restrained style. Grapefruit and pear aromas, vibrant citrus on the palate with an unusual hint of minerality on the finish. Pairs well with crab and shrimp. Very nice as an aperitif. $17.

2005 Pinot Noir: Another low yield intense wine! The final wine is darker than is our usual style, both in color and fruit character. Black cherry, chocolate tannins and cedar spice predominate. After months of bottle age, the high toned red fruit of the 115 and 113 Dijon clones is emerging, lending hints of cherry and blueberries. 91 Wine Spectator. $39

2006 Chardonnay: A balanced cuvee showcasing the elegant tropical flavors of our East Block and the crisp acidity, floral notes and trademark mineral finish of the North Block. Lovely with Dover sole (or trout) meuniere. $28.

2006 Pinot Gris: Abundance of Bartlett pear with a hint of citrus character, floral overtones and a creamy mid-palate, ending with a crisp finish. Featured by the glass at several prominent restaurants around the country. $17. Pinot Gris, 90. Wine Enthusiast, Nov. 2007.

2005 Chardonnay: Extremely low yields make for an intense, rich chardonnay. Tropical fruit overtones are developing with bottle age, as well as a hint of hazelnut. Look for a crisp minerality in the finish. This vintage is appearing to be similar to the outstanding 2001.$28. 91 Editor's Choice Wine Enthusiast. Nov. 2007

2006 Late Harvest Pinot Gris: Opens with aromas of honeysuckle and pie spice. Pale gold in color, flavors of wild honey and peach emerge. The 7% residual sugar is balanced by starfruit acidity, making it sublime with artisan cheeses and Rainier Cherry tart.
