Wax on with zesty lime and green apples, and wax off with a long bitter honeysuckle finish. Pairs well with nutty tomme cheeses, but does well on its own as a Sunday afternoon snack.

Whoa! Oldest white vines in Oregon. This wine has amazing complexity and a super sensual texture.

Sleek, mineral, briny, wooly and textural. Fun to taste next to Forlorn Hope Nacre with mussels. Bravo @Jeff Vejr

Great work from Jeff. Like a comedian's comedian, Jeff is a wine drinkers winemaker.

Smooth. Easy acid. Yellow fruits, browned butter toast, and honey. Really nice.

Fantastic! Cloudy rich golden hue, mildly sweet but the main palette presence is honeysuckle and lime.

Had the 16 and 17 side by side. The 16 had more lees-y notes such as cream, vanilla, and fig yet still with a sharp acidity that would be ideal with food. The 17 had more citrus notes and I found the palate to be less focused. Overall the 16 was the winner for me.
