Vibrant ripe cherry, cranberry, and raspberry nose unfold into dried blueberries, plum, and lively summer herbs. Full, plush, and balanced textures with fine grained tannins and a gentle, bright acidity. This wine is complex and layered, with ripe, fresh flavors and elegance.
James Suckling writes: Wild strawberries, cherries, dried flowers and nutmeg on the nose. Some chocolate orange. Medium-bodied, tight and sleek, with fine tannins and a fresh finish. - James Suckling 91
Clive Pursehouse writes: Benton Lane is in the southern end of Oregon's Willamette Valley; this wine, made in a riper fleshy style, is a blend from sustainably farmed vineyards throughout the region—aromatics of kirsch, cassia bark, and dusty black cherry. The palate is juicy and full, with more concentrated black and bing cherry flavours, hints of clove and cinnamon and a touch of mint to finish. Drinking 2023 - 2028 - Decanter 91
