Wednesday, January 16, 2013 - 2 Days in the Valley- Day 1 (Willamette Valley, OR): Nose: Very aromatic and complex nose filed with tones of wild spices, herbs, some earth tones, dark red fruits and just a slight bit of rose petals.
Taste: Pretty and silky medium body with medium/high acidity that brings a real bite on the back end. Well balanced with very good depth and gorgeous tones of wild spices, herbs, dark red fruits, and rose petals.
Overall: This is a gorgeous wine right now, but it can develop into a real stunner. There is some real nuance that needs age to show, but this is showing extremely well right now.
