Elegant and perfumed aroma, with lots of honey and copper like minerality. This is a nice wine, but it's price point excludes it from where it could compete.

More rounded and rich texture than expected, subdued acidity. Had hoped for more mineral and some freshness despite some age

A total surprise from Oregon. Balanced, with honey suckle and lush fruits.
