Beyond expectations... Moderate+ evolution Aromatics: Brilliant cherry fruit with a touch of mushroom and thyme. Medium Body, Med+ acid, smooth tannin, med alc. matches nose and silky texture. The purity of fruit and acid spine really make this wine a pleasure to drink. Years of life ahead. Willamette meets burgundy.

Tasted 1 hour of air. Medium garnet color. Some forest floor notes on the nose. Mushrooms? Some round red berry fruit on the palate balance by medium plus acid. Medium tannins. Sour cherries? Plenty of weight on this unlike some other 2011s I have had. Nice effort.

This was one of the darker, richer Pinots from Winderlea in 2011 that I have tasted so far and has been my most enjoyable Winderlea 2011 to date.
