Dijon Clone Freedom Hill Vineyard Chardonnay 1999

This aged Oregon Chardonnay is still showing quite well, some honeyed aromas, but solid fruit and acidity, a medium-long finish, this is the first of 6 bottles I found in a box with non-Chardonnays, how well this is showing tonight gives me hope it will continue to drink well for a few more years, kudos to Mark Vlossak!! — 3 months ago

White Hill Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay 2024

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2024 “White Hill” pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with bright notes of star fruit, passion fruit, stone fruits, lemons, a touch of freshly struck matchstick, some white flowers and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and slightly saline. I love the character of these wines. Really tasty stuff. Drink now through 2034+. — 5 months ago

Little Hill Pinot Noir 2020

We had the 2020 vintage of Little Hill on 11/3-4/26. Tastes of black cherry, raspberry and spice. Wonderful mouth feel. Medium bodied, well balanced, New World. Aged and ready to drink, no tannin. Perhaps the best single vineyard I have had. — 5 days ago

Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

From magnum. Partially poured into a decanter and enjoyed over the course of a couple days. Best on Day 2. The 2015 Pritchard Hill pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing and richly fruited with powerful, heady notes of cassis, blackberries, plum, purple flowers, tobacco, cocoa, some star anise and fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and the texture is luxurious. Classic Pritchard Hill character and surely a candidate for top vineyard status if the US were to ever adopt a classification status. There’s a long future here, especially in this larger format. Drink now with patience through 2055. — 2 months ago

Hard to say. The large format can skew things. I bet the 750’s are bangin

Nice but I'll always opt for the "Signature" offering for the price. Have tasted a decade's worth+ of the Pritchard Hill vehicle. A bit too plushy for me but the Signature is Baby Bear old school just right.

@Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego The Signature is great and most of the fruit is coming from Pritchard Hill anyway.

Ocean Reserve Blanc de Blancs 2020

Pale lemon in color with a golden hue.

Nose of limes, yeast, earth, citrus, brioche, minerals, spices, sea salt and light herbs.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and medium sized bubbles.

Dry on the palate with lemons, green apples, herbs, yeast, earth, spices, white pepper and brioche.

Long finish with limes and light herbs.

This is a very tasty sparkling wine from Russian River Valley. Feels very fresh, complex and entertaining. Nicely balanced and elegant.

This 6 year old Blanc de Blanc will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food.

100% Chardonnay grapes were aged for 4 years on the lees.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.
