Big fan of Grochau wines. First bottle of Gamay from him. Lots of tart red berries and peppery finish. Would hold it’s own against Cru Beaujolais. Brought it into the shop to see how it would do and it promptly sold out. — 6 years ago

Absolutely frickin beautiful. David Lett is a magic man. I continue to be blown away by the old wines from Eyrie. with @John Grochau — 10 years ago

Still a lot of there there. Meaty and bacony. with @John Grochau — 10 years ago
I went to a big tasting at VINO, featuring 6 local winemakers, which of course was a stone cold blast! I'm picking my top wine from each, but if you know me and my love for Beaujolais, it won't be a surprise this nimble & very lively/brambly Gamay completely won me over! Closest I've tasted to Fleurie in the New World. Outstanding... — 11 years ago

What a bad boy. Full of supple blackberry fruit from the Syrah balanced with lovely and silky tannin from the Tempranillo. Absolutely excellent flavor and structure. Truly exciting for Oregon. — 10 years ago
Great with bean salad, its saline and heat makes it fish worthy — 10 years ago
