Previous Vintage Tasting Notes
2005 Vintage Fragrant, spicy, and floral with sweet lilacs wafting from the glass. Loads of cherry candy and spicy tannins linger enticingly on the finish.
The 2005 Momtazi comes from organically farmed and diodynamically grown Dijon Clone vines planted in volcanic soils high in the hills of the McMinnville AVA.
About the previous 2004 vintage, Northwest Palate says: "Big cherry aromas also carry caramel and cedar accents. In the mouth the wine has a bright cherry core, swaddled in cedar, graham, and rose petal accents. Light tannins add structure to the finish and will soften with 2-3 years in the cellar."
