I've enjoyed their wines for the past few years. They recently sold to a bigger company. Here's hoping it doesn't affect the quality for the worse.
Had their latest "Peregrin". Excellent for the price.
They are one of the wineries where I differed on the reviews from WS. I poured a '07 "Gap's Crown" and it was widely praised by my guests. WS gave it an 84, which is usually swill.

...I've probably related this here before.
I used to order 6 bottles of Downing Family Fly by Night Napa zinfandel every year.
I think it was the 2003 vintage they rated in 2005.
In the comprehensive WS zinfandel ratings it was way, way down at the bottom with 63 points. They said the tried more than one bottle.
I have never seen a wine score that low before or since then.
Yet it was one of my favorite zins that year.
Go figure.
