Organically farmed. Clean and pure. Burst of citrus and yummy acid. Low alcohol. 100% Malolactic Fermentation.

Fireworks. Serious old world charm and only 12.25% alcohol. Hard to tell this isn’t GC Chablis

Wonderfully expressive and impeccably crafted, this is the best domestic white I've tasted all year. Beautiful mix of rich, elegant and saline, takes the mouth on a gorgeous up and down ride. Structured enough for oysters and rich enough for lobster with drawn butter. Truly serious craft here, both in the field and cellar.

Solid effort with currant and blueberries. Pinot is great with Korean kalbi. Not sure it’s worth the price point

This is lights out. The minerality and acidity combine for a mouthfeel like no other. The fruit is just ripe enough to mesh with the 25% new ok to create for an intoxicating nose.
