Wine Enthusiast
A fascinating note of grated ginger highlights gorgeous pear, peach and toasted almond flavors in this complex, nicely balanced and mouth filling wine grown near the Pacific Ocean and Bodega Bay. Oak spices are well integrated with good acidity and fresh fruit for an expression that's both generous and refreshing in this tiny-production bottling.

James Suckling
The cooked apple and lemon rind come through on the nose with some butter cookie. It’s full-bodied and layered with an oily texture and a long, flavorful finish. Rather oily and dense at the end and slightly simple. But attractive.
