Community Tasting Notes 4

  November 4, 2022 - Tasted after 1 hour of air. Medium ruby color. Some medicinal notes on the nose. Round cranberry fruit with some balancing crunch. Still seems like some drying tannins here. A bit of tea. Fades quickly on the finish. Drink up.

  March 25, 2020 - This is a warm-weather vintage wine from a relatively warm site, but it has good balance and is just fresh enough after 11 years. Finish is a tad hot—warm vintage after all—but this wine has a lovely nose, pleasurable if fruity mid-palate, and long finish. Frankly it is much better than I expected, and went well with duck confit this evening.

  September 1, 2017 - Silky texture, cherry and oak. Lovely example of an Oregon Pinot.

  March 11, 2014 - Light garnet, nose of light violets with cedar. Dry with light bitter tannins on the PnP. Restrained red stone fruits, plums and currants. Lighter body. These seemed a little too floral when young, but now tart tannins predominate. Interested to see the development the next several days when the bitter elements subside.
