La Combe Verte Chardonnay 2023

Considered white Burgundy or Etna Bianco.
Called Canary Islands. Salty and reductive.
Lots of acid. Should’ve considered Willamette as this reminds me of Morgen Long wines. Good vintage for most of the west coast.

The North Slope Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

Walter Hansel remains a favorite Pinot Noir for me. Big on fruit and peppery with a hint of fennel. This Winery never disappoints. Sipping 2018 . — 4 months ago

One of the best CA producers of Pinot. Especially, for the money.

X Novo Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

2023 vintage. Curious as to how Grand Cru Bâtard-Montrachet (starts in the $400's a btl) tastes, this is an excellent place to start. This effort clocks in at under $100 a btl. 04.23.25. — 15 hours ago

Cuvée Anne Willamette Valley Chardonnay 2022

Young entry level wine from this producer. Took an hour to open up. Nice depth a slightly reductive characteristics, in a good way. Will add depth over time — 4 months ago

Centgrafenberg Frühburgunder "J" Trocken 2018

Lyle Fass
9.3

Big 18 sunshine nose. Violets, mulch and spice. Some nice sweet wood as well. But just enormous spice. Very Fruh. Palate is so elegant and full of violets and wonderful inner mouth florals. Really nice opulent texture and just floats. Let’s see what air does. After air this gets more linear and gains edge and energy. Really different now than when it was p and p. — 6 months ago

Arlyn Vineyard Gamay Noir 2018

If I was tasting blind, I would’ve said RRV Pinot. Aromas of cola,red fruit and cloves. Those aromas transferred to my palate where they were met by a healthy dose of acid. An extended finish. Despite a reasonable 13.5% alcohol, at about 3 hours it stared to make its presence known. — 2 months ago
