Carter Vineyard is located in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA and is owned by Ken Wright. The vineyard is west facing, resulting in wines which show darker fruit and tannins. Volcanic soils result in a more fruit driven wine. Floral wine with blackberry and black cherry fruit and spice. Wine is a bit taut and could use a few more years of aging. — 2 months ago
Enjoyed with roast turkey then subsequently with sautéed pork tenderloin. Fruity enough for the turkey, enough body and acidity for the pork. Lovely nose ($30) — 3 months ago
More robust than most CBs. Notes of pear and dried apricot with some vanilla and honey. — a month ago
Tart strawberries, good red fruit, nice spice… Ken Wright doesn’t disappoint!! — 2 months ago

15 years of aging and the wine is spectacular. Still has blueberry and dark cherry tones with a long finish. — 21 days ago
