P&H, founded in 1988 by industry folks Donald Patz, James Hall, Anne Moses and Heather Patz. Grapes were sourced from Gap's Crown and a new vineyard from winegrower Mark Sanchietti, as well as several other acclaimed vineyards. Complex aromas of stone, tropical and citrus fruit. On the palate melon, pineapple and lemon flavors, toasty & nutty notes with lively acidity, rich with great mouthfeel. Well balanced on lingering finish ending with mineral tones. Larger production allow this wine to be enjoyed now.

A very nice profile. Pineapple, hints of vanilla, hints of butterscotch.

Vivid straw yellow color and aromas of fresh fruit, green apples and citrus with floral notes. The palate was rich and with layered flavors of peach, apple and vanilla spice. The wine had a generous mineral taste with oak, noting that the wine sat on French oak, (38% new). The 2014 was drinking very well, however a little time in the cellar would gain some added benefit.

Aromas of slaty smoke, celery and subtle dried fruit. Dry and creamy palate with herbal vanilla notes.
