Willamette Valley

Cork

Rose petal and peony fragrance with dried earth, toast and stewed strawberries on the nose.  Nuanced and full of complexity with even more rose florality, delicate yet sappy red berries and lots of savoury spice, tobacco and umami elements. Forward and super interesting to see how it grows and changes with time in the glass. 2014 began with an early bud break followed by a warm, dry and plentiful season. A large crop with perfect harvest conditions. Winemaker Tim Malone, Bob Bertheau consultant winemaker, formerly at St Michelle. The first vintage of this exciting project, 2005, is set for release in 2030.
