IPNC Weekend 2018; 7/26/2018-8/2/2018 (Linfield College, McMinnville, OR): Light medium transparent ruby color. Drank 1 glass blind over an hour. This was the ringer in the bunch as it was the one wine with age on it. I'd never had this producer before, and I was duly impressed by this bottle. This has a classic Oregon feel to it, with that lighter weight, earthy with perfumed red fruits, floral with dried roses; on the palate this has a pretty red raspberry fruit, light medium body but plenty of energy and intensity along with some zippy 2010 acidity. I'd like to try more and see if this is a consistent style. Excellent, right in my wheelhouse.
