Elegantly poured a soft red with delightful aromas of cherry and wild flowers rising from the glass. Soft flavors of sweet cherry, plumbs and with hints of florals swirled over the taste buds. Spring seems to be incapsulated within the walls of the bottle, with light in texture that seem to blossom as the day evolves. Semi dry, well balanced with a long enjoyable finish.

Mainly Oregon (Noizé): Similar light ruby to cherry. Richer on the nose, and the fruit more in the strawberry spectrum. Lovely texture in the mouth, creamier and plusher without being overdone. Long finish with the strawberry element to the fore. Still some ok and a touch of heft but it’s balanced and just about in check. ****

Decanted 3 hrs. 5 years since my last bottle, this was drinking like a prototypical Brick House SVD pinot; that is dark berries strewn about a forest floor, good balance, mid weight palate structure and good focus. Yet, something never really came together on this bottle, it just never really turned the corner that I expected it too. Perhaps slightly off or just in a stubborn phase, I’ll let me last bottle sit another 5 years. Still, this was tasty.

Thankfully, this bottle tastes like it should and there is plenty left here.

Not much left here—I have 5 more bottles and hope that the rest aged better than this one.
