Aged two years in French and American oak, this is a dark and meaty wine, with black fruits and a hint of blood. There's a bit of a hole in the midpalate, but streaks of cola and licorice revive the finish.

Strongly minty with a streak of wintergreen, this barrel selection comes from the right AVA for Oregon Tempranillo, but does not fully capture the varietal flavors. It's an earthy, tart, generic red wine, with drying tannins and a short finish.
