#AgedWineTuesday
Pretty Golden in color.
Nose of apples, light yeast, peaches, minerals, spices and light herbs.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and soft bubbles.
Dry on the palate with limes, light grapefruits, herbs, earth, minerals, yeast, light brioche and white pepper.
Long finish with limes and sea salt.
This is a delicious Sparkling wine from Oregon. Rich and fruit forward. Easy drinking and complex. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
Feels like Champagne, which is nice to see out of Oregon.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.
Robert Parker 96 points. Wine Spectator 92 points.
A good quality wine. Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Aged on the lees for 10 years. Disgorged in 2021.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$80.

Translucent gold. Powerful, smoke-tinged orchard and pit fruit aromas, along with a suave floral overtone and a hint of honey. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, offering pliant nectarine, orange and poached pear flavors braced by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows fine definition and a touch of toasty lees on a long, subtly chewy finish that leaves a sexy floral note behind. Disgorged in July 2019. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, September 2020)

Game changer. Argyle Winery's 2005 Extended Tirage, like a stack of perfectly cooked pancakes, baked honey crisp apple & just right pie crust. Textured & gorgeously balanced.
