I’m just going to straight out say it. There is a lot of jealousy around the valley over these wines. Yes, there is some bottle variation. Guess what, 1 man show, does everything on his own, bottles barrel by barrel, some cases are different from others. But this what we always talk about supporting, the little guy who is making it happen no matter what, doing it on his own terms and don’t give a F. When very important guests come into your restaurant and ask for a “mic drop” wine...this is my Go-To every time. Never had someone be disappointed. Say it over and Over 2005 Oregon is the vintage of a lifetime, the good wines are still getting better.

Magnificent magnum for Thanksgiving.
Subtle, and balanced. A little early to open but no regrets.
