Aromatic with Oregon earthy funk, thin mid palate, tart acidic finish. I think this wine will balance out in a number of years but it drinks like simple Oregon Pinot now.

Wonderfully aromatic, with the wild berry flavors so associated with Oregon. Wonderful mix of reds and blues. Fine palate, still a bit firm but nuanced and deep. Nice length. Needs a few years. With air seems to shift to bright red fruits showing crunchy acidity. Really strong.

A lighter burgandy that is fully transparent in the glass. Red berries and earth on the nose - quite a pleasant aroma. Upon taste I instantly noted black pepper that quickly was replaced by raspberries followed by currants and a minerality. Finish is medium to long. A very easy and delicate sipping wine. Drinking very well now and I doubt it would drink much better in 3-5 years.
Wonderfully aromatic for a young wine. Strawberry and spice, with a hint of earthy underbrush. Fine tannins and bright acidity. Has a lot of structure to resolve but is still quite accessible and enjoyable now.

Excellent stuff, tons of black pepper on the nose, leading one to wonder what caused it, otherwise some strawberry jam and a really bright all around presentation. I’ve never been disappointed with this producer.
