Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 15, 2015 - Dundee Hills, marine soils. Red, dark red fruit and mineral aromas. palate shows width and some concentrate (relative to other cuvees), but still dances light on the palate. not super fruit focused, but a rather singular, yet difficult to pin down flavor profile. Again, a cherry/fruit cocktail note on the palate.

Generally speaking about the 2013 and 2014 vintages. 2014 - hottest OR vintage on record. 2013, there was a 200 hour rainstorm. Any fruit they picked before the storm got bulked out. After the storm, 85% of their fruit, came down in ABV to 12.5-13.5% from the 13.5% ABV pre-storm.
