FULL-BODIED, BLACK CHERRY, TAR, FRESH HERBS, EARTH NEUTRAL OAK
‘Sacris’ could definitely benefit from some more bottle age in order to let its tannins soften up a bit (FYI, Sagrantino has the thickest skin of any other wine grape in the world)...it also has the right balance and structure to age long and gracefully, and just happens to be the first-ever 100% Sagrantino made in Oregon. Conclusion: ‘Sacris’ might make a very cool, unique bottle to collect & cellar (until 2028-2060)!

Pinot Noir
MED-BODIED, STRAWBERRY, BLACKBERRY, WET STONE, CLOVE, VANILLA, NEW OAK
This soft, somewhat brooding expression of Willamette Pinot Noir comes from the Four Winds vineyard in the McMinnville Coast Range. Planted in 1990 with Pommard clone Pinot Noir, the high elevation and uniquely shallow volcanic soils here result in lean, fresh, and acid-driven wines with distinct mineral tones and rich berry fruit.
