4/26/2024 - stbraunt Likes this wine: 91 pointsIt’s a solid pinot but disappointing for the price and the taste. Too tart for an Oregon Pinot. |

4/21/2024 - gharter Likes this wine: 89 pointsOn the nose, floral, red fruits, cherry, raspberry, spice. Light in color and light in flavor. Improved with time. On the palate, red cherry, raspberry, plum, spice and subtle cedar. Soft tannins in a medium finish. Part of a larger tasting. |

4/19/2024 - Ed B Likes this wine: 90 pointsFrom last night, by memory. PnP and drank over 2.5 hours. Semi-opaque dark burgundy color, with hints of brick. A little funky at first, but smoothed out to be a very pleasant, if very complex, wine. |

4/12/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 90 pointsNeeds some time to open up. Popped and poured and was biting on the taste. Over two hours it opened up quite nicely. It has blackberry and a spice note (maybe all spice). |

2012 Ken Wright Pinot Noir Carter VineyardEola - Amity Hills more |
4/5/2024 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 91 pointsSubsequent notes on this wine from 10 years ago. Medium-deep garnet in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, cranberries & raspberries with overtones of spices & floral notes, black tea leaves, dried herbs, minerals & a hint of cedar in the background. Medium bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe red fruit flavors of cherries, pomegranate & cranberries with spices, herbs, cola, tea & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present but at 12 years of age is close to or at its peak of development. Although it should hold here for a while longer, I doubt any further development would occur with additional aging. |

3/19/2024 - Wineben84 Likes this wine: 89 pointsVery light color. Nose of red berry with the slightest hint of oak. Up front on the palate it is very acidic with cranberry, fresh raspberry and strawberry. Smooth mouthfeel. Lighter bodied but not watery and unpleasant. Delightful for the price |

3/15/2024 - slulkin wrote: 92 pointsBest, and I think, last of our bottles. Dark ruby in the glass, nose of wet tobacco, black fruits and forest floor. Silky mouthfeel and the palate followed the nose. Nice medium plus finish. Wish I had one more to see if this continues to evolve. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

3/9/2024 - Neecies Likes this wine: NRSusie's bottle. PnP. The prior reviewer covered it very well: sweet raspberry fruit, initially muted, some cherry and earth. And unlike the '22 Cloudline nearby, this got better and better in the glass. Still too young, but it has a future. |

3/6/2024 - dlu Likes this wine: NRDark and extracted. Black fruits, forest floor, and a bit of heat on the nose. Savory, muscular pinot flavors. A less accessible style (in my pinot framework), but it works with the right foods. To be revisited on day 2. |

2019 Ken Wright Pinot Noir AuricYamhill-Carlton more |
3/2/2024 - pkoster6000 Likes this wine: 97 pointsFlagship Pinot from Ken Wright. Best barrels of Pinot are pulled to make Auric. Purchased at the winery. Very deep and rich colour almost opaque but not quite. Very rich and opulent nose of dark cherry, black raspberry, boysenberry, dark currants, some vanilla, nutmeg, and leather. Powerhouse Pinot noir. Rich and opulent with all the flavours following the nose. Some rose water, and violets show up on the finish. Super sexy and delicious. Serious heft and weight. Massive finish. Have 2 more bottles. YES!! |
