2017 Hundred Suns Pinot Noir Old Eight CutWillamette Valley more |
1/1/2020 - akolicich Likes this wine: 90 pointsI really liked this, it's a great value drinking wine and great for a group. It's a mouthful of raspberry juice, with a subtle finish of earthiness. Not very complex, and maybe a bit over-oaked, but really pleasant. |

12/21/2019 - akolicich Likes this wine: 91 pointsStarted off quite harsh, could be a bit over the hill. After 60 minutes started to open up. Tannins still fairly pronounced, flavors of coffee, chocolate, and hints of dark fruit. |
