Community Tasting Note

September 26, 2017 - Similar to my previous note. Somewhat overbearing and at the same time a bit lackluster. An ok Pinot, but a little heavy-handed on the attack but yet thinning out on the back end. Not much complexity. 90-91 points. My last bottle. On to something different.

It came off that way for me, and I’m not necessarily one who ordinarily minds fruit-driven wines. This is a decent wine, but lacks finesse and sophistication. It’s just a lot of fruit that delivers a one-note hit on the palate. It’s fun for the first few sips, but then I lost interest. Nothing cerebral about it. Anyway, enjoy your Willamette wines!
