October 6, 2020 - Dark plum in color, cherry and raspberry on the palate, pleasant savory notes. Over the last month or so, I opened my last 3 Winderlea 2007s- an Ana, an Estate Reserve, and this Estate. While Estate Reserve was the most complex and intriguing of the 3, the Estate was the darkest of the trio and most robust. Eye-opening that Oregon pinots from as challenging a vintage as 2007 was can age so gracefully.

September 14, 2020 - Wine really has held up, showing structure and Burgundian character typical of this region. Paired well with roasted spatchcock chicken. Glad I have another bottle to enjoy.

April 12, 2019 - This wine has developed nicely over the years. Very nice nose of cherry and some spice . Light bodied, elegant, silky palate. Resolved tannins.

June 22, 2016 - Black cherry colored with nose of sweet black cherries with a bit of white florals.
Black cherry and earth with a squeeze of citrus. Silky and medium bodied. The acid is high- and the wine cries out for food and it's a bit shrill on its own. 14% abv. -

January 16, 2015 - Much better the second day..Initially a bit of fizz, but shook the wine, and this disappeared.. On second day, silky texture, mid weight, nice cherry fruit and beautiful balance. Much better than the last time I had it.
