2014 Inside Passage - Reserve White Wine 68% Viognier, 17% Marsanne, and 15% Grenache Blanc 91 Points - "Sumptuous and generous on the nose with layers of roasted pear, red apple, and muskmelon mingling sensuously with camellia notes that become prominent after some aeration. Hints of ginger and apricot enliven the foundation of lightly buttered toast rounding out this interesting flavor profile. On the palate the story is about texture. The wine is endearingly fleshy and opulent, soft but thick like fine suede with a medium length finish showing bitter notes characteristic of some Viognier. A friendly, approachable wine with the intricacy and detail to hold your interest. -The Sommelier Company 89 Points - Wine Enthusiast "Made to pair with halibut on the winemaker’s annual trip to Alaska, this blend of 68% Viognier, 16% Marsanne and 16% Grenache Blanc shows beeswax, seared pears, caramel corn, apple syrup and peach crème brûlée on the nose. It’s light and playful on the palate, with ripe lemons, rounded stone fruit, honeysuckle and citrus zest."
