The Usual Suspects (with photos) (Fiddler's Green): A light ruby red in the glass with scents of earth, funk, sour cherry, tomato leaf, and hints of maple smoked bacon. In the mouth flavors of raspberry, strawberry rhubarb pie, and bing cherry are followed by a lift of vibrant acidity into a medium length finish. With proper storage this could go a few more years...but why wait?

Cloudy, rust-tinged ruby color. Nice cherry and allspice flavor with balanced acidity. Some grip on the finish from the integrated oaky tannins. Long finish developing flavors of rose petals and clove.

Easter with him and went well. Has peaked and has less acid so not likely to live much longer. Nice fruit still withsubdued nose.

Vintage KW. Solid and drinking at or near prime. If you appreciate well made Oregon Pinot, drink or get some of these!

Loved this wine! Great fruit and acidity balance. Cherry and cranberry notes and that KW velvet texture that I enjoy.
