“The 2023 Wiley bottling from Bravium is considerably juicier than the 2021 vintage (the last one I tasted), with black fruits and cola spice on the nose alongside juicy strawberries. Wiley is a hillside vineyard planted in the 1970s, located nine miles from the Pacific Ocean, with its old vines situated on the western hills of the Anderson Valley. The palate is fleshy and loaded with generous berries. A blend of ripe red strawberries and blackberries, with notes of earthy soil and warm spices, complements this wine.” – Clive Pursehouse
