Community Tasting Notes 5

  October 4, 2022 - Standard profile for this talented producer: transparent and delicate on the palate, medium-long finish, and remarkably reasonably priced. This 2018 still benefited from 1 hour+ aeration in bottle.

  February 28, 2021 - On paper this wine should be right in my wheelhouse. Love the weightless feel and red fruited profile but there was something I didn't care for in the flavors. My btl had a metallic edge I didn't care for that made it fairly unappealing, for me. Likely just an off btl. Doubt Ill revisit.

  January 28, 2021 - Cherry, red fruit, some vanilla from oak, slight spice, some earthy funk. Lighter body but smells and tastes like Willamette Valley PN. And (as Tunaguy pointed out) it's $18 retail. What's not to like? It's not something to hold, but it should drink fine over the next couple of years.
