The palate is medium bodied with bright acidity, light tannin, and a long, complex finish. Bright cherry and raspberry notes showcase the climate of Chehalem Mountains, while the McMinnville region brings fresh pomegranate and hibiscus flower to the glass. The palate reveals the cola and cinnamon spice notes of Yamhill-Carlton AVA, and earthy mushroom and black tea notes presented on the finish hail from our source vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills area.
This wine pairs easily alongside cheese and charcuterie, baked salmon, roasted chicken or pork, and leaner red meats such as duck breast or filet mignon.
