Hellfire White a blend of a lot of white wine grapes, maybe too many, very hard to get a handle and one flavor but the overall effect is pleasant... funny label with a picture of Billy Sunday prohibitionist crusader on the label...
Phelps Creek Gewurztraminer Columbia Gorge, reminds one of pink grapefruit..not overly ickly sweet and viscous as some Gewurz can be. pleasant acidity, quick finish
Phelps Creek Estate Chardonnay oaky nose, but pretty well balanced overall... a quick finish seems to be the hallmark for this producer...short finish
Phepls Creek(on purpose misspelled) Le Petit Pinot Noir a wine made in the carbonic maceration method which usually leaves me cold because of the aromas of tin and banana, but this wine is light, pleasant and overall a great summer wine...not heavy but truly varietal.
Phelps Creek Becky's Pinot Noir ... i really liked the texture of this wine, a little chewy and strong flavors in the mid palate..much more than at the end.
Mt Defiance Brimstone Red, the red counterpart to the hellfire... pretty purple red coloring, juicy with lots of dark fruit upfront but again the finish left me wanting more.
