A 4 clone blend, Ruby with aromas of red fruits and subtle spice, aged for 21 months in oak. On the palate flavors of strawberry and raspberry flavors with tea and earthy tones. Medium-bodied, fine tannins, balanced, medium finish ending with fruit and earthy spice notes. Nothing exciting, ok, but others are better, a bit pricey on this one!

Clear dark ruby. Inviting nose of black cherry and cranberry. Medium full palate echoes the nose adding red apple peel and on the finish, a hint of vanilla and a touch of balsam. Medium tannins that assert on the finish as well. Mouthwatering medium plus acidity wraps it all up. A classic Willamette PN blending New World fruit with Old World style and structure. A universal red that’s ready for nearly any cuisine. Drink now through 2028 with some minor development.

OR Willamette Valley. Nice cherry colors. Smells a bit funky. Juicy. Smoke and apple orchards. Pretty easy. But cola and and incense. This is fine.

Light and smooth, easy drinking. Great fruit and very enjoyable. Chicken skewers here I come. Still not sure if better than the regular
