Victoria named after Colene Clemens daughter, medium Ruby with aromas dark red fruits, black tea and floral spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum with cedar, black pepper, tea and vanilla spice. Pronounced soft fine tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity, ending with fruit, herb and sweet spice. Very Nice!

Just tried ‘18, again, wow, very nice! Located in the western end of Dopp Road where the Chehalem Mountains converge with Ribbon Ridge, medium Ruby with aromas of red fruits and alluring spice. On the palate ripe raspberry and wild cherry with pepper, toasty spice and earthy notes. Young with fine integrated tannins, well defined, elegant with underlying richness, long finish ending with oaky notes. Nice value!  Just love this wine, will age well!! Great value!

Ruby with red and blue fruit aromas adding some cedar and complex spice notes. On the palate blueberry, raspberry and plum flavors with pepper and oak notes. Nice mouthfeel, savory silky tannins giving way to a long finish ending with fruit and sweet spice character.

Good fruit up front, peppery mid palate and a finish. Did get a bit hot with air though.
