Points and Press - 2008 Vintage
California Grapevine, December 2009
90 Points, First Place: 2008 Pinot gris Willamette Valley
"Medium-light yellow color; attractive, citrus and white peach aroma; medium-full body; fleshy, melon and stone fruit flavors with good depth and a slight hint of residual sugar that adds to its appeal, yet with a crisp finish; lingering aftertaste. Very highly recommended."
Wine & Spirits, August 2009
89 Points, Year's Best, Best Buy: 2008 Pinot gris Willamette Valley
"This racy gris opens with scents of peach blossoms and green apple. The palate is driven by pear flavors, its juicy texture dusted by a chalky stone element. It has the energy to match smoked trout and fennel." - Patrick Comiskey
