The 2018s at Failla are off the charts. These might very well be the finest wines I have ever tasted from Ehren Jordan and his team. The Sonoma Pinots in particular are just remarkable for their depth and site expression. Readers who want to explore the specific attributes and nuances of the vineyards will flip out over the 2018s. There are plenty of highlights among the 2018 Chardonnays as well, including the Platt and Haynes. I also had a chance to taste the Oregon wines and include notes here. In Oregon, I prefer the Pinots, as my impression is that the Chardonnays are still bit light. Regardless, this collection is a real thrill to taste. I can't recommend these wines highly enough.
