Yamhill Carlton Tasting Event (The Armory, Portland Oregon): The nose is complex and interesting. It reminds me of a smoky oak fueled bonfire by the sea. Later, some great blueberry scents show as well as some pie crust. Dark cherries with thick skins deliver immediately on the palate. The oak comes in fully, but it remains in balance. There's a hint of something tart towards the finish, and a gravelly mineral note as well. 89-
