Walter Scott

A terrific wine at the entry level, the 2023 ‘Cuvee Ruth’ comes from a range of sites throughout the EolaAmity Hills AVA. Rich red and dark fruits combine with salty soils and loads of minerals, with citrus peel accents. This is already beautifullydefined stuff, with terrific acidity and a smooth mouthfeel.

This cuvée comprised of fruit from some of the top vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills packs a pretty perfume of ripe red raspberries and a wee bit of blueberry fruit leather and talc. A darker raspberry flavor prevails on the palate, along with bursts of orange zest, green tea and that classic Walter Scott acidity.
