The collection of wines here continues to expand into mostly unexplored territory (blaufrankisch, anyone?) and Pax Mahle said he finds that working with a wide range of varieties stimulates his creative urges, "which keeps things vital and interesting." The slow growing season of 2010 meant that ripening was especially protracted in the cool vineyards that Mahle favors. Some welcome heat spikes in late August and early September helped to spur ripeness, he said, but weren't so strong as to make sugars race ahead.

I was deeply impressed with many of the wines I tasted from Wind Gap and proprietors Pax and Pamela Mahle. The estate favors cooler, marginal sites. The wines are made with a very natural approach, which is to say the grapes are crushed by foot, aging is largely done in neutral oak and the wines are bottled without fining or filtration. Best of all, many of these wines sell for very reasonable prices. Readers should note that Mahle's Agharta line-up is reviewed separately. Pax Mahle told me he plans to re-launch his Pax label in the near future.
