WSA Tasting Panel notes:
Bright, pale to medium ruby with pale pink rim. Youthful aromas of red fruit, cherry candies, and hints of wood are of medium- intensity. The wine has medium alcohol and body, and is medium- in acidity and tannin. Although dry, flavors appear sweet with notes of wild strawberry and cherry cola. The finish is medium in length.

On location: Seven Devils
The Seven Devils are a series of gorges running out to the Pacific along the Oregon Coast in the Cape Arago area, near Coos Bay. They were so named by early explorers who found the gorges particularly treacherous to traverse.
