Showing its middle age... red fruit transitions directly into a core made up of good earth and forest floor plus some tertiary stuff; finishes with a good lick of acidity to show it ain't done yet. Remember driving up Worden Hill Road in 2010 as a newcomer to the region... 12 years gone by in the blink of an eye.

Flat and closed on night one. Night two was quite generous and full of character. Oregon pinot funk, roasted coffee beans, plum, some dark berries, and a hint of something plastic-y. Overall, quite enjoyable. Some unresolved tannin at this time, however, which aging should mellow out.

Cola and dark cherry on the nose. Medium depth. Nice balance. At a disadvantage drinking against a 25 year old burgundy
