  A conservative 87 as this wine seems to have held well with only a slight brick\rust tint in color showing its age. The wine is more robust in body than I would expect from a Pinot Noir, and maybe presents with a little more ETOH than I would expect too (the bottle label was warn off where the alc.% is listed, so I didn't know what to expect.) Otherwise this is still showing a pleasantly pronounced nose, with tasting notes recalling some red berry, a little earth, but nothing overly complex. All in, this was a nice find in the back of my cellar, a bottle that I firmly believe would not benefit from further aging and perhaps is beginning to fade.

  Fantastic nose that you know it is from Willamette: cherries, earth, slight alcohol and mint. Wonderful. Tastes a little thin and dissipates pretty quickly. Cherry lingers mildly on a slightly acidic frame...probably had another year in it, but may also be indicative of the year. Good bottle at a good time.

  Strawberry, cherry in the nose, light, simple, a little thin on the palate. Very soft finish that was quite clean and smooth.
