Description
Aegrina Vineyard, located in the McMinnville sub-AVA, is one of the most distinct vineyards in our portfolio. The name, Aegrina, loosely translates to 'full of love' - the winemaker's love of the fruit, our vineyard manager's love for the vines, and the love you will feel for this wine at first taste. Lynn and Ron Penner-Ash helped map out the southeast facing slope of the vineyard and assisted with the clonal selection. The site is planted to a variety of Dijon clones, Pommard, and Wädenswil. This diverse planting produces wines that are dark, dense, and texturally sweet.
Aromas of sweet vanilla oak mixed with spiced plum, cassis leaf, and new leather lead to a lively attack of red raspberry and briar followed by a textured mid-palate density and lengthy juicy finish.
