I was still making wine on a commercial level in 2005, it was a warm year for Washington State, leading me to believe it was warm in Oregon, too. The 2005 Bergstrom Nysa Vineyard offers up a nose of ripe red fruit, rose hips, burnt brown sugar, and raspberry leaf. Garnet-hued with a translucent edge, it leads with a spicy note, and presents high-toned acidity—cranberry compote, pie cherries. At this stage, its still bright and taught with low levels of tannin and a finish that ends in white pepper.
