Whiff of barnyard when first opened, but blew off after a while. Easily the most concentrated and robust of the PNs we tasted that night, but it seemed the wrong style. Given the preponderence of red cherry and strawberry on the palate, I was left wondering whether a lighter, more femine style would have been more appropriate for this fruit. Still a very nice wine, but I thought it could have been better.

- Garnet color with slow forming legs and aromas of raspberry, cherry and strawberry. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of raspberry, cut green grass and licorice anise with a light/medium body. Fleshy texture.

Drinking well now. Flavors develop as time progresses. PnP and drank over a long dinner with friends. Loved how it continued to evolve during the evening. Light to medium body. High alcohol content not evident tonight. Cherry, strawberry/raspberries mixed with just enough Dundee hills funk. "Different" than usual Oregon pinot noirs, as it is a softer and more feminine pinot. Tasty!

Wasn't corked, but something was off or missing on this bottle. No one could place it, but this just didn't taste like a Dundee Hills PN.
