Note from Day 2. Beautiful nose showing classic Pinot notes of spice. In the mouth, the wine gives a wonderful lushness, with a long finish of complex red fruit, and encroaching tertiary notes of umani. This wine is simultaneously full bodied and delicate. A great bottle. Purchased at Et Fille tasting room in Newberg. Wish I had bought more. Not inexpensive (US $80) but would compete with Burgundies selling for double the price. Yet another indication of Oregon's place in making world class Pinot Noirs.

Purchased at Et Fille tasting room, Newberg. One in 3-wine flight, as part of Sleuth tasting (3 wines representing 3 vintages and vineyards, served blind). Beautifully balanced and well aged Pinot, that will continue to positively evolve over the next 3+ years if you enjoy ageworthy Oregon Pinot.

No detailed notes. Recall is being mature with a lovely balanced nose typical of the site and nicely-balanced fruit, tannin, and acidity on the palate.
