On first opening the nose is light currants, spice and a little bit of barnyard funk. The palate is also showing light currant and spice with some cedar that leads to a nice lightly tart and dry finish.
With some air the nose has added some leather and pepper with the palate showing some cedar spice box notes that linger on to the finish.

Great wine and holding its own. Drinking wonderfully right now. Paired with Grilled Salmon...Oregon Pinot as it should be.

Nice red berry showing with a slight amount of earth. Pretty light. And straightforward with almost no finish. It's an enjoyable wine at a nice price.

Spicy with sweet spice character. Tight still, elegant, nicely done. Works at $30.
