Saturday, February 11, 2012 - A visit off the beaten path in the Willamette Valley: De Ponte, 1789, Anam Cara, Crowley (Dundee Hills, Oregon): Yep. I really liked this wine. Aromatic aromata-ta-ta. I could just sniff this for awhile. Flowers, scents of a the Hood River Valley during cherry season, toasty barrel, musty forest. Palate was middle weight fruit that was exceptionally pure. Velvety-rounded tannin spreads out and prods palate with flavors. 30+ second finish. A young wine that drinks well now and should improve. $48 and worth every damn penny. Rating is prob a 92+ in a few years.
