Josh Bergström's Notes
A “complete-State” blend from multiple Oregon AVA’s and hand-selected vineyards.
This wine has a complex character that reveals more and more with each minute in the glass. Dark, black cherry in color with classic Syrah aromas of pepper, tarragon, forest floor, matsutake mushroom, rosemary and thyme garrigue, cured meats, tar, tobacco, leather, and sanguine iron. Juicy and vibrant on the palate with full-bodied and ripe fruit flavors of fig, plum, and cane berries. Joining the fruit are notes of savory herbs, olive tapenade, and bresaola. With a ripe tannic structure and a youthfully reductive nature, I would recommend decanting this wine 10-20 minutes prior to enjoying. Drink 2023-2028+. Alcohol: 13.2%.
