  Gorgeous wine that stays elegant without losing power. Nose is powerful with herbal and baking spice notes. Palate is balanced and dominated by candied cherries. Spectacularly beautiful wine.

  Last bottle, purchased at the winery 10/2013, this bottle appears to be a bit past it’s prime.
  Still a pleasure to drink, even though the nose was somewhat muted, the fruit was soft and aged, fully integrated tannins, with a medium finish. Paired with grilled filet and stuffed gnocchi.

  Decanted and tasted, purchased from the winery back in October of 2013.
  Nose was quite noticeable, with cherry, plum and very ripe prunes, classic PN nose IMHO. The palate was similar to the bouquet but with earthy mineral notes that were long and complex. One bottle left that I will be in no hurry to consume.

  2/1/2021 - Bandreas Likes this wine:

  Soft smell of cherries, juice of canned cherries and a touch of Maraschino.
  On the palate well balanced and soft; round with just a touch of - well integrated - balancing acidity and resolved tannins.
  Everything smooth and in harmony. A nice, pleasurable bottle of wine, which can be drunk on its own, without food. Probably at its best now.
  The only draw-back: When the wine got closer to room temperature, it lost some of its tension.

  This had a wonderful floral nose of cherries and crushed red fruit. Cherries and raspberries on entry, transitioning to notes of light mushroom and flowers and herbs. Nice acid sugar balance, and the tannins seemed well integrated. I’m curious where this will go in the next 5 years, and if time will tame the floral notes exploding out of the glass. Not that they need to be tamed. In any event, a wonderful and elegant wine and a good example of what Oregon Pinot can be.
