This is the second bottle I've tasted from Leah Jørgensen, on finishing my glass, I can honestly say her wines leave me with more questions than answers. The 2014 Tour Rain reminds me of some of my favorite wines from the Bourgueil. With a brilliant dark magenta robe, this Oregon Cab Franc is seductive and multifaceted. Dusky plums and Queen Anne's cherries are couched in layers of dried rose petals, pomander ball, cinnamon bark and brown spice. It's medium-bodied, beautifully balanced and concise. Tart cherries, sweet tobacco, warm wicker. All of which leads me to wonder, who is this young winemaker? She's definitely one to watch in Oregon's evolving wine scene. 13.4% ABV | Sample

A white cab franc from Washington. Interesting texture, retaining the cf tannins yet having white wine acidity. I liked it.
