PnP. Dark cherry and berry, spice, cola, spice and earthiness. The dark fruit mixed with the earthy notes is incredibly enticing and keeps you coming back. Medium body, medium acid, some tannic grip in the finish. Last tasted five months ago and I still think this has good structure to age and will likely be better in several years. Sticking with 91, but pretty confident the score will go up after a couple of years bottle age.

PnP. Black cherry,, dark berry, blood orange, pie spice, some lower level herbs. Medium body, medium acid, fine tannins in the finish. On the high end for a Willamette Valley pinot, but this has a lot of stuffing and structure. It doesn't taste like an entry level wine, so the quality certainly justifies the price. Drinks well now, but should hold for several years. My guess is it will drink well through 2028 and perhaps later.

Cranberries and sour cherry cola. Lip smacking acidity cleanses the palate with each sip.
