Our Yamhill-Carlton estate produced a ripe wine in 2017 and shows dark fruit profile and aromas typical of the vineyard: black cap blackberry, and even blueberry fruit on the nose. A bit of roasted meat and toasted nut compliment generous fruit on the palate. Wet stone minerality lends complexity to the finish. It continues to develop in the mouth and ends up bright and impressive, with a slightly warm finish. It has great length, and produces a lasting impression on the drinker.
