Very young, tasting of vines that will produce a great wine in a decade or two. But clearly made by a talented winemaker who knew how to get the most out of their grape. Gonna be awesome.

Washington fruit from a new Oregon winery. Juicy Barbera with a wild streak. Excellent structure to match the fleshy fruit. I had no idea that there was Barbera in Alder Ridge, a very good variety for Washington IMO.
