      Tasting notes :

      This wine reveals cherries, pine needles, fresh hops, and black tea, with hints of peach, around a mineral core. This is a full body wine, with lively acidity, and broad, fine, velvety tannin. The long finish lingers with a chorus of cherries, tea leaves, and fresh Oregon Douglas-fir shoots.
