Dream wine: When I drink it, I will let ya know
Founder of the Stems and Legs wine tasting series based in Seattle, WA. We focus on wines from Washington State and around the world. I coordinate wine tastings, tours, dinners, and a tv show (coming soon!) I've been tasting for a few years now and still have much to learn, but that's all part of the fun!

If you're a complete wine geek and want something that's going to trip you out over a few hours, pick this wine up. Otherwise, I wouldn't suggest it. Initial nose is very off-putting and oxidized. But after an hour an a half of tasting through it, some of the pleasant notes came out. Had some cement, biscuit, lemon zest notes on the nose and palate.
I'm a bit surprised it held up as long as it has, but it's definitely well past it's prime. Go with one of their newer sparkling wines for better quality.

If you're looking for something different from Willamette at a value, you may want to check into this one. Mostly tart cherry and raspberry notes on the palate with a metallic back end. Not sure if this wine would be helped with more time. I will give the last bottle another half year and see if I get more developed characters.
