Nose of dark blue and red fruits with an overwhelming meaty/saline character. Floral hints. Very compelling nose. On entry, more structure than fruit. Gentle tannins coat the mouth, followed by dark berry flavors. Very nice.

Darker, savory, saline nose. Somewhat restrained. Tasty juice. More structure than a typical “Willamette Valley” designation. Good acidity bring vibrancy to the palate and finer tannins really coat the tongue and gums, but not at all unpleasantly for this young wine. Darker fruit and floral flavors. The medium+ finish is dominated but not overwhelmed by the structure. This entry level Pinot noir is enjoyable now but I can see it improving over the next few years. Very good QPR at $22 from Market of Choice.

Reductive out of the gate. After an hour or so, nicely balanced nose of dark red fruit, earth, floral. Great vibrancy in the mouth, but balanced with dark fruit, tannin. Long finish. So enjoyable. Great now but I can see this gaining complexity with another couple years in bottle.
