Tasting Notes
Summer is officially in full gear even though it has been cloudy all week. It hasn’t stopped me from being outside as much as possible and sharing fantastic wine. The 2017 Madrona Hill from Elevee is one of my top 20 Oregon wines for 2020. The palate for this wine is gorgeous. When I taste a wine, and it expresses itself with a subtle spice upfront and mid-palate, I perk up. The spice sticks around for a subtle long pleasing finish. What are your plans for the weekend? If you don’t have anything planned, make a reservation with Tom and France at Elevee for an adventure in Oregon Terroir. Also, say hi to Four for me!!
