  • Score: 93 Vintage 2018 Wine Advocate Medium ruby-purple, the 2018 Gamay has delicate and very pretty aromas of powdered sugar, rose petals, cracked pepper and loads of sweet red berry fruit with gentle earthy accents. The medium-bodied palate offers intense spice and earth-laced fruits supported by a grainy, super fresh frame, and it finishes long and perfumed. What a gorgeous expression that illustrates the potential for Gamay in the Willamette Valley. 650 cases produced. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 90 Vintage 2017 Vinous Light, bright red. Spice-inflected strawberry and cherry qualities on the lively nose, along with a subtle touch of earthiness. Taut and focused on the palate, offering juicy red fruit and floral pastille flavors that turn sweeter through the midpalate. Finishes silky and long, with barely discernible tannins and lingering florality. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
