This wine shows the California influence, taking the edges off the Oregon fruit and pushing it forward on the palate. Broad flavors of strawberry jam and streaks of melon take over, with plenty of the root beer/cola character right behind. It could almost be Russian River juice, but shown in a lighter, more elegant style. Excellent value.——P.G.(2/1/2008)—— 87
