This is fascinating—an Oregon side of the Columbia Valley Merlot in a Rhône-shaped bottle released extremely early with the oak pulled way back. Aromas of red plum, muscat gummy and pomegranate lead to pleasantly pure, textured, layered fruit flavors. It's a radically different interpretation of this variety. Give it a bit of additional time in bottle or decant to see it at its best.
