A very enjoyable off the shelf back vintage here. Nothing terribly complex, but balance point has held up wonderfully after a decade in the bottle. — 3 months ago
Raspberries, bright cherries, and a bit of cola. Floral bouquet. A bit tart right out of the bottle. Opened up after about 30 minutes in the decanter (probably needed another 30 minutes). — 3 months ago
One of the best Chards out there $86 and from Oregon ??? — 2 months ago
Dark garnet color. Complex aromas of lavender, violets, rose petals, red cherries and cinnamon. Red, blue and black berry fruit flavors with touches of baking spices, orange zest and fresh basil. Beautiful earthy note on the long finish. Medium bodied with soft tannins tannins and nicely balanced acidity. Delicate but bold at the same time. Excellent! — a month ago
This has aged well, would hold it’s own with a 1er Burg. Fruit is there but dry and tart, spicy and earthy. Wish I had more. — a month ago
Nose: hint oak. Airy. Hint sea breeze. Lovely. White flowers.
Palate: lovely sweet oak. Sweet wood. Rich. Not over the top. — 3 months ago
Lovely lemon and slight oak, trace amount of pear and peach. — 3 months ago

Double decanted two night prior. The 2016 Rose Rock pours a pale ruby color with no staining of the tears. On the nose, effusive fresh strawberry, red flowers and mint. Medium structure. Unmistakably New World with a heavy dose of inspiration from Burgundy and while this has plenty of substance, it’s all about the fruit and super clean; almost cutesy, very demure. Balanced. Drink now but should drink well through 2031. — 2 days ago
