Based in the Chehalem Mountains, Adelsheim Vineyard is one of the pioneering wineries in Oregon with their first commercial release coming in 1978. This wine is a blend of their best barrels coming from their best plots, and is a true reserve wine that reflects the vintage and character of the Willamette Valley.

Other Reviews....
Bright red. A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes candied red fruits, rhubarb and allspice, with musky herb and vanilla nuances building in the glass. Offers an array of red fruit flavors that put on weight and gain spiciness with air. A floral note comes up on the finish, which clings with impressive tenacity and focus. I suspect that this wine will age nicely on its balance. But the way, the 2003 version of this wine is drinking extremely well right now.

Fresh, open-textured and appealing, with mint-accented blackberry and cherry flavors, remaining light and expressive through the minerally finish. Drink now through 2017.
