Community Tasting Note

  December 3, 2023 - I don’t know what to make of this. As a wine it’s tasty. As WV Pinot, not so sure. Honestly blinded I’m not sure I’d even call it Pinot, especially Willamette Valley. More reminiscent of new world Grenache. Huge for Pinot, very fruit forward with dense red and black fruits and some oak. Very clean and pure. Missing acid and structure. Color is a dense ruby-purple, barely transparent.
  
  Maybe if you like big Pinot like some RRV’s can be, go for it. The style here is too much a departure from WV Pinot for me personally. It’s round and lacks the precision I look for.
