Elegant and refined. Black cherry, underbrush? Quixotic, fast-developing nose. Floral. Light cola, light tobacco. Exceptional balance.

Located in rural Carlton, Oregon, KWC is devoted to showcasie the inherent quality of selected vineyard sites. A blend of Ken Wright Cellars' traditional vineyards, not as complex as the vineyard designates, but enjoyable none the less, Ruby with berry fruits and spice. On the palate raspberry and ripe cherry with complex spice, well balanced with smooth tannins. Nice length on the finish ending with slight earthy character.

Bright cherries and raspberries with earthy, spicy notes on the finish. Super versatile and matched well with red sauce pasta and chicken..

Cherries, cherry liqueur, slight wood note. Lovely balance but wanting structure.
