Fruit for this wine comes from some of the oldest vines at Yamhill Vineyard, planted in 1983. Fermented in 80% 500-liter neutral French oak with the rest in concrete cube, the aromas offer notes of melon, hazelnut and pear, with whiffs of banana chip as it settles into bottle. The flavors show depth, intensity and layering. A vibrant vein of acidity runs through it, adding tension to the flavors. It's both hedonistically and intellectually enthralling. Sean P. Sullivan

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
