Willamette Valley, Oregon

Spice-accented black raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by suggestions of cola, incense and Asian spices. Bright and energetic on the palate, offering densely packed red and blue fruit liqueur, savory herb and floral pastille flavors that turn sweeter as the wine opens up. Fine-grained tannins support an impressively long, spice-driven finish that shows excellent clarity and lingering floral and blue fruit notes. All de-stemmed fruit and 20% new French oak.

Food Pairings: Roasted lemon chicken, Pork tenderloin, grilled veggies and salmon.
