November 26, 2022 - A Single-Vineyard bottling from Björnson Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA.
Aromatically lively with notes of cherry, pomegranate, brambly berries, blood orange, bergamot oil, white pepper, sous bois, forest floor, rock and hints of cola, juniper, sandalwood and spice.
Velvety in texture with a supple mouthfeel. Slow building and refined tannins play with the juicy acidity. Flavors of cherry, pomegranate, black raspberry, blood orange, cola, spice, funk and earth. The finish lingers, elegant and voluptuous. -

February 4, 2022 - Aromatics worth the price of admission with earthy, savory red fruit as lagniappe. Well done.

November 10, 2018 - One of the better expressions of Bjornsen fruit I have tasted. Enjoyable now, and likely to improve.
