Ruby with elegant 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 raspberry with notes of herb pepper, licorice with wet stone notes. Soft dusty tannins on a long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes. Very Nice! Drinking well now!

This was nice initially and really open after 4+ hours. A bit too much oak for my personal taste but the core of this wine is so savory. Mushrooms. Incredible length on the finish.

Scents of cherry and spice greet you. In the mouth the cherry is prominent along with raspberry and cranberry that meld with black tea like tannins and vibrant acid.

2018 vintage. Plushy yet with a gentle economy of flavors, body and tannins. Overall impression is of richness but with harmony. Really well made.

A better example of 2017 OR PN, but still pretty fruit forward and leaning slightly generic....maybe just better wood than the Benton Lane?
