Raspberry, sour cherry, tea, herbs with a bit or earth. Has improved since last bottle on 10/2013. Very much in balance as the alcohol has tamed down. Still appears and tastes young. Very nice Oregon Pinot.

This has certainly improved since my last bottle in july 2013. Bright cherry color, translucent and shiny. Raspberries, pomegranate and cherry notes ending with green pepper earthy notes on the nose. On the palate this feels fruity and young, bigger than what it looks like, and with rounded chewy tannins. Good acidity. Finish is a bit hot which is the sole distracting note. Is evolving nicely, i hope the alcohol mellows.

Ripeness and hints of stewed fruit offer testament to the hot vintage. Well made, very good acid. Quaffable. 88-89.

Red berries and cherry cola. Closed nose at first, but opened up to a touch of lavender and nuanced herbals. A pretty wine with a lovely finish.
