2014 Coureur des Bois Red Blend
93 points - Wine Enthusiast Magazine
93 points - International Wine Report
Coureur des Bois (ku-rer-da-bwa): A French-Canadian term meaning “woods runner.” These independent traders lived and traded with native people without official permission from the French government of New France. This unique red wine blend, much like the renegade Coureur des Bois, tests the boundaries.
The Coureur des Bois captivates the senses with an intriguing bouquet of black currant, smoked meats, garrigue, white pepper, limestone and wild flowers. This leads to a rich and savory wine loaded with lush flavors of plum preserve, black cherry, olives, cassis, leather and red currant. It already has great intensity, impeccable length and superb aging potential.
40% Mourvèdre, 40% Syrah, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
Willamette Valley Vineyards has grown from a bold idea into one of the region’s leading wineries, earning the title “One of America’s Great Pinot Noir Producers” from Wine Enthusiast Magazine.
