Impressive wine for $20! Grapes sourced from Oregon Valleys of Willamette, Umpqua and Rogue. Cool climates enable a longer growing season, giving an intense structure. Deep Ruby with loads of Berry fruit flavors & sweet spice. Ripe fruit, cranberry and cherry, with cinnamon spice, consistent quality. On the finish, vibrant acidity, great balance and a touch of earthiness with subtle tannins. Tasting Sample. — 6 years ago

Hits the nose with strawberry and papaya notes. Mouth feel is smooth and dry with citrus hints. Finish is medium and minerally. Overall a very nice white. It develops as it warms up — 7 years ago
Nice and no so sweet. Easy to drink — 8 years ago
Pretty light gold color, medium viscosity. Lots of fresh, new, toasty oak on the nose, citrus, green grapes, some green grass/hay. Palette sees more oak, citrus, apricots, white flowers, medium+ acid, healthy alcohol, but not high octane like many French Viognier. I enjoyed this- I preferred this colder, medium complexity Viognier compared to many of the burning French versions. — 8 years ago

Wait, what? Southern Oregon...where’s that, and how did they come to make such amazing white wines? The sock puppet has questions. Voluptuous density with amazing balance of floral, spice, and tropical fruit notes. Gonna have to look into this Muscat thing... — 8 years ago
Very dark purple, no sediment, nearly opaque, medium viscosity. Nose sees wet hay, vanilla, some sweet cherries. Palette sees dark red fruits, a healthy does of tannins, medium+ alcohol, medium+ finish. Really surprised by how great this wine is- more powerful than jammy, could cellar for many more years and easily pair with fattier meats than what you'd expect from a PNW Syrah. — 8 years ago
Oh I think I’m in love. Smoky. Steak. Jerky. Salt. Then a rich finish with a small kick of tannins. I think it’s very well balanced for its age. ❤️ — 5 years ago
A great entry level Oregon pinot noir. Shows great promise for what higher level Oregon pinots bring to the table. Although more on the lighter body (which is to be expected on an entry level wine), the flavors are well balanced between cherry, raspberry, and earthy mushroom. Hard to be beat for $18. — 6 years ago
Easy drinking, a little smoky. — 7 years ago
A burst of blackberry and a slight licorice finish this is an amazing blend from Cliff Creek. — 8 years ago
For a cheap red from Winc I really like it! Maybe because I just spent half a year down there but this honestly was such a pleasant surprise. — 8 years ago
Vanilla hint as well — 8 years ago

Best bottle of wine I’ve had in recent memory. Only wine drinkers know what we mean by “brambly” fruit - this is that turned up to 11. Fresh herbs, potpourri, cotton candy, hair spray (in the best way), fresh manure, potting soil. Dense and feather light. Uniquely delicious. — 5 years ago
