Community Tasting Note

• mos wrote: 88 points

  April 24, 2012 - First night popped and poured. Good nose of red fruits, smoke, and everything I'd expect of an Oregon Pinot. Wicked acids overpower everything leaving a pretty puckering experience in it's wake. Had I stopped here would have rated lower.
  
  Vacuum sucked the bottle and stuck it on the counter.
  
  Night two: Wine a little warmer and certainly a little more open.
  
  Nose of strawberries, hay, smoke, and loam.
  
  Attack of strawberries, raspberry, and green grass. Mid palate smoothed out tremendously flowing into a nice lingering finish. Acids much better balanced this evening and overall a much better experience.
  
  I'd recommend decanting for an hour or so before serving this.
