W roast chicken after Helen tumbled of M. Light color, decent light nose, but on palet this developed nicely as the wine opened up. Nothing soecial but very solid. Good Oregon example of pinot. No soft round fruit but more steely/woody. This will be good for 3 more years at least

Well resolved, some herbs and redskins on the nose - super fine tannins, kirsch cherries, hints of oak and spice with a lovely length - very oregon and agree on the cherry cola - excellent - 4 fingers

Wow, what a wonderful wine! Sour cherry nose, sweeter cherries on the palate. (And yeah, I'm getting that cola note too.) Matched perfectly with roast duck.

Very good overall. The fruit has faded and the oak is pronounced with some sweetness. Smooth tannins and this probably is the best it will get.

Really nice and smooth with some juicy dark cherries, but not much complexity.
