December 30, 2023 - Good value wine. No off flavors, just a bit of smokiness on the finish but nothing off putting.
February 14, 2023 - Decanted and allowed to open up and breath. This made all the difference. The characteristics of the wine came into balance and any smokiness was no longer detectable. I didn't do that with the first bottle that I opened and was noticeably different. Decant! And give it some time. You will be rewarded
November 25, 2021 - Nice, fruitier Oregon Pinot. Very drinkable now. None to very slight smokiness at the end that does not detract from the overall palate.
July 28, 2020 - Pleasant. Interesting sidenote: my wife did not know what I had poured when i brought her a glass and she immediately said she smelled smokiness! I did not get it on my first sniff and drink, but got a very very subtle smoke on the nose. Not offputting, but definitely there when looking for it. Overall a decent Oregon Pinot, and I am glad to support (in a very small way) the cause.
May 13, 2020 - Nice Oregon Pinot. Lots of light red fruit on the nose - strawberry, raspberry and cherry. Balanced but on the crisp side, Medium length. First impression on taste is cherry and raspberry. We enjoyed this with wild salmon. I am looking forward to our remaining 2 bottles. I didn’t detect any smoke on the wine.
April 26, 2020 - Nice clarity. Has a slight Smokey aftertaste, but not in a bad way. Good flavor.
March 24, 2020 - Enjoyable Oregon Pinot. Full bodied, fruity, well made wine. All the more satisfying that it represents the collaboration of winemakers in response to adversity.
November 10, 2019 - Good Pinot and glad Oregon Solidarity was produced to benefit the Southern Oregon Applegate Valley wineries
