Sunday Brisket (Matt's, Portland OR): Nose: The nose is perfumed and balanced with strawberries, pure red fruits, cherries, red berries, crushed rocks, roses, perfumes, incense, and spice tones.
Taste: The feel is Medium bodied with crisp, Medium+ acidity and silky, medium m tannins. The feel is plush and refined with flowing tones of strawberries, cherries, red berries, crushed rocks, roses, incense, and spice tones.
Overall: This is really gorgeous right now. It was very expressive immediately and showed a purity to the red fruits.

Pop and pour and tasted with food (wonton noodle soup, with shitaki mushrooms and chicken, in case you were wondering), and then on its own. Light ruby color. Nose offers fresh red berries and some sandalwood. Light in textture with strawberry and sour cherry notes; good acidity. There is a lightness to this wine with purity of fruit. No green/unripe elements. This will not "wow" you; however, as a light and refreshing pinot, it matches well with food. Enjoyable.
