Baba Yaga 2023 - Oregon Wine Press June Cellar Selects Winner - Southern Rhone and Loire Style
Baba Yaga 2022, 92+ points Made from a blend of 60% Grenache Blanc and 40% Picpoul, the 2022 Baba Yaga opens with a bright, citrus-laden nose that bursts with freshness and mineral essence. Light to medium-bodied, the palate offers a delightful mineral tension and succulent acidity, with notes of citrus blossom that dance across the mid-palate. The wine glides to a zesty finish, making me crave fresh seafood and cheeses. 2,100 were produced. Give it a try! - Anthony Mueller, Robert Parker Wine Advocate
2018 Bombadil, 92 points (Picpoul/Grenache Blanc) Dried-pear, wax and kiwi aromas and flavors. Nutty, too. Very distinctive, but really gives a nod to the whites of the southern Rhone Valley. Full-bodied and slightly oily. Flavorful and fun. 80% grenache blanc and 20% picpoul. Drink now. James Suckling Reviews
2018 Bombadil, 91 points - The ‘Bombadil’ is a blend of 80% Grenache Blanc with a small portion of Picpoul blended in. Light Japanese pear and cut grass with white flowers all march in harmony aromatically. The freshness and verve of the wine is outstanding as bright green apple, sourdough bread and unripe honeydew melon flavors all collide with gobs of minerals backing things up. The flurry of freshness makes the drum beat faster. Drink 2020-2026 International Wine Report/Owen Bargreen
2017 Bombadil, 90 points - "A blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Picpoul, and 20% Viognier, the 2017 Bombadil is an exotic, racy white that offers juicy notes of crushed citrus, lime, and white grapefruit, with maybe even a hint of minerality. Clean, medium-bodied, and juicy, this well-made, rock-solid white is ideal for summer drinking." Jeb Dunnuck Reviews
2017 Bombadil, 91 points -"A savory edge to the nose with dried pear and apple aromas, as well as nutty nuances. The palate has a grassy lemon edge and a sleek, stony and bready finish. Blend of grenache blanc, picpoul and viognier. Drink now." James Suckling Reviews
2017 Bombadil, 91 points - "A blend of mostly Grenache Blanc with smaller parts Picpoul and Viognier, this begins with intense aromas of green bell pepper, green papaya and lemongrass. The palate has a really good astringency, with green apple, melon and kiwi flavors that impress. This is a fantastic bottling that is also best enjoyed in the short-term while the brightness remains." International Wine Report/Owen Bargreen
