This estate bottling is a blend of the Pommard and 777 clones grown in Willakenzie and jory clay loam on the south side of Chehalem Mountain. The nose presents boysenberry, pepper, brown sugar and Darjeeling tea with hints of mushroom. These notes complement the Bing cherry, clove and strawberry jam on the palate. Enjoyable now, this wine will benefit from cellaring. Harvested September 15, 2016 the grapes were fermented with indigenous yeast and given a five-day cold soak followed by 25 days cool fermentation then barrel aged in 40% new French oak for 18 months without filtration.
