點擊次數(shù)：3895

The 2009 Cabernet Franc which had been blended only 3 weeks previously was aged in 40% new oak and is likely to be bottled in December, 2011. It, too, displays plenty of herb and spice box aromas, a succulence that is impressive, a velvety texture, and exceptional length. The intense Scott Greer is one of Washington’s rising stars. His wines are all sourced from estate vineyards which are just now starting to come into maturity. He keeps yields low and the farming and winemaking are impeccable. Greer notes that he harvests totally on taste. He has recently opened a tasting and sales room in the Seattle area which should improve access to his wines.There is really no mystery as to what Scott Greer is doing at Sheridan; total attention to detail, a great vineyard, impeccable farming, and non-interventionist winemaking.www.sheridanvineyard.com
