Delicious! I absolutely love this wine and the people at Holloran! Visit this tasting room if you’re in the area! This Riesling is refreshing and dry, with tropical fruit notes, and a bit of delicious minerality to it. — 7 years ago

Last bottle, tasting one year since last pour. Pale yellow with golden tinge, excellent clarity. Sulfur and tropical fruit aroma. Semi-dry, soft, slight spritz on finish. Floral, peach and tropical fruit (guava) flavors, bright crisp acidity, excellent with food. Aging well, solid choice. Minor skin astringency in finish, aftertaste. — 8 years ago

You know a wine is good when you rate it 9+ despite the fact you were drinking it when Bucky blew the sweet 16 #heartbreaking — 11 years ago

This Pinot noir changed my mind about both Pinot noirs and Oregon wines. My first impression was that it was bolder than most Pinot noirs, but it has a nice medium finish. — 6 years ago
Retasting eight months later, my last bottle. Ruby red, very good clarity. Black currant and red berry fruit leather notes in nose. Blackberry and cherry flavors initially. Mild skin astringency in finish, with white pepper emerging after 15 minutes. Black currant, plum, mint and a touch of cola and earthiness emerge an hour after opening. Complex flavor profile. Chewy tannins too emerge, so best decant a couple of hours. A little more acidic brightness wouldn’t hurt though. Maybe Tempranillo can be a Pacific Northwest thing... — 8 years ago

Drank this at Vino Veritas with John King and Emma on 11/12/18. Not as tannin-y as most Tempranillo wines. Very good! — 8 years ago
Excellent complex Tempranillo with nice touch of wood. This is Tempranillo typical of SPAIN. Impossible to distinguish from a 90+ Spanish Ribera del Duero. — 9 years ago
Had at dinner with both parental units & Manzas. Worked well as an after dinner wine, as it was sweeter, but not too sweet. — 11 years ago

Smoky aroma, strong tobacco taste on its own, balances out when paired with lamb or a fatty / oily meal. — 4 years ago
