  I had the 2014 and it blew me away. This wine lacked character and life. Still very drinkable but past it’s prime in my eyes.

  Delicious light Oregon PN which went well with spaghetti dinner. Wonderful and great right now. Sorry I have no more.

  Decanted. Lovely but didn’t excite me as much as other vintages of this wine have. 13.5%

  This is a good quality Oregon pinot with nice balance, but still a bit young. The nose has lots of cherry and raspberry, hints of cranberry, damp leaves, some pleasant barnyard notes, and just a hint of violet. The palate is good, lacks just a touch of freshness, but otherwise is good and should still develop further. I think it will be better in 3-5 years.

  On the nose, aromas of dark fruit, earth, subtle tobacco. Cherry, cedar, and some baking spices on the palate. Long, lingering finish...cherry notes carry through, along with cocoa. Well-integrated tannins and enough acidity to keep it in check. Beautiful Pinot.
