Description
Luminous Hills Vineyard sits in the southwestern portion of the Yamhill-Carlton District within the larger Willamette Valley appellation, and is the home vineyard of Seven of Hearts winemaker Byron Dooley.
3 wines are produced here, with this estate Pinot Noir being a blend of several vineyard sites. A wonderful, deep red which is 25% whole cluster fermented and then barrel aged for sixteen months in a mixture of French oak from different cooperages. Lively and spicey with dark berry scents on the nose. Smooth and appealingly sweet, offering plump raspberry and floral pastille flavors that intensify on the mid-palate. Although structured, this wonderful Pinot is forward and nicely balanced, displaying clarity and rounded tannins on the finish.

2020 Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza, Mendoza
Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
