Living up to its name, this “off-piste” skin-contact amphora-fermented high-altitude Pinot Grigio is so orange it’s rosé. Subtle floral nose (Alma says Jolly Rancher) that bursts like fresh picked fraise du bois on the palate, with enough grip to keep things interesting. — 8 years ago

All that you could want in a new world Grenache rosé. Jacked to have more than one bottle on hand! — 9 years ago
Direct hit to the heart. Beaujolais spirited syrah that offers a super fruit nose composed at first of blueberrie sirup then blackberry with a violet hint after a few swirls. Non filtered with a hint of a gas when opened, no bretts; this suggests coherent and traditional wine making (+ high drinkability when successful). Clearly among the best wines I've tasted from Oregon. — 10 years ago
20250607 Rest. Piste 21 Samedan, Engandiner Agility Cup with Wakano.
Very pleasant Rose, not too sweet but a fruity bouquet and slight tannin at the end.
Lovely

I admit I’m sometimes a skeptic of clever labels, and seeing as I bought it a terrifically hip natty and natty-adjacent wine store I confess I went into this with a bad attitude but day-ummmm this is a thirst-quenching gulp of Savoie fare.
Lemon-y, light, seashells and daffodils it is springtime in a bottle which is astounding considering the guy skiing down the piste but I need to look up what the French says as I’m so many years past AP French lit I barely know how to say merde this is brilliant. You know what? It has this tickle though. Like it’s teasing at effervescence but it’s such a super-étoile it doesn’t need to sparkle to shine. — 5 years ago

Very tasty. Easy to drink, but still quite complex, with a pleasant funk and with great mineral notes. Another yummy effort from Fausse Piste. — 8 years ago
New world richness but with many layers - dark fruit, licorice, cigar box. A decadent treat! — 9 years ago
