Light, smoky, hint of oak, dark cherry, paired nicely with a serving of duck carnitas, which sweetened the flavor. — 3 months ago

Shea Vineyard is in Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Pomegranate, black cherry and blue fruits, with spice, cola and pepper. — 13 days ago
Elegant Ruby color with red fruit aromas and gentle floral spice, aged for about 12 months in French oak, signature blend of grapes from Dundee Hills, Eola-Amity Hills, and Yamhill-Carlton AVA's. On the palate flavors of cherry and black raspberry with notes of herb, licorice and wet stone notes. Soft dusty tannins on a long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy notes. Very Nice! Drinking well now! — 17 days ago
This is drinking beautifully at the moment. Nose is showing cola and intense cherry sap, along with moist underbrush and gravelly scents. Some sweet graham cracker spice. Velvety textured, it shows more stony minerality on the palate than the nose, but with nicely concentrated, crisp, ripe cherry fruit as well. Terrific wine. — 2 months ago
