Oregon's tribute to ancient Monks. Blackberry, creamy raspberry, blueberry with an accent on structured Welches grapes. Suburb acidity and balance. Perfect with 5-7 years in the bottle.

If you could mix blackberry, blueberry, ollieberry, unripe rhubarb, dark cherry & raspberry liquor, dark chocolate and just a hint of smokey bramble this where the wine is at this stage. 5-7 years in the bottle seems to where the sweet spot is without graduating into date, fig and prune. Not that that stag is bad but it's just the other side of the bell curve. This is a great example of what the right producer in an Oregon climate can produce! Great stuff with BBQ or just about any grill meat.
