  Off the wine list, SHCC. Deep ruby red color. Cherry cola and raspberry, with a bit of floral notes. Didn’t get the sassafrass noted by others (which I love), or much other secondary notes. Good blend of fruit and structure that Oregon Pinots have so frequently, and right up the middle between seeet and savory. Very good match with the pheasant terrine and the duck.

  Wow!!! What a huge gushing Pinot.... I think the last Abbott claim I had was a 2004. Oh how it has changed in style from what I remember. This one is deep purple ruby in color and extremely fruity. Notes of cherry, raspberry, huckleberry, leather, rose bulb, vanilla, cola, sassafras mushroom and mineral. Still showing off the strength of its youth this thing is like thick ripe berry skin on the palate and mouthfeel almost tubular like a ballon. Will drink well from 2022 - 2032.
