This is blockbuster Pinot. The color is a dark, inky purple. The nose blossoms with scents of syrupy, spicy berries and cherries. The taste explodes with flavors of dark berries and cherries with an oriental, earthy spice. The finish is forever on spicy fruit.

Leaving NYC and moving to San Francisco; 7/16/2005-7/17/2005: Wow, dark in the glass with dark extracted fruit. Amazing this is from Oregon. An awesome wine. The climate in 2003 really was Hot Hot Hot and you can taste it and smell it in the glass. The fruit is ripe and beautiful. Dare I say almost California like? Dazzling red and black fruit with hints of chocolate and light oak. The wine's smooth finish makes me lust for another sip.

Big for Oregon Pinot--rich black raspberry, almond, and an herbal note at the finish. Solid acid. Fairly pleasurable.

Very rich Pinot, layers of dark raspberry, forest floor, some leather with a long finish.
