  October 20, 2023 - Delicious Oregon PN and with an actual cork LOL! Black cherry, raspberry and flowery notes burst from the bottle and glass. The same dark cherry, raspberry plus some sour cherry are on the mid palate and the satisfying acidity balances the fruit well. I like this pinot as the fruity acidity lingers for half of a minute and the sour cherry finish is provided by the crisp acidity. After 24 hours the nose and body are still dominated by the red fruit. I thought it was a little better coming out of the cellar but at 72F the alcohol is a little more pronounced. But overall this wine is excellent and a good representative of Willliamette Valley PN. Hoping to get a little more complexity with more air but enjoyable now with food such as grilled salmon and even chocolate thanks to the cherry fruit.
