A uniquely light, ethereal red fruited palate with gentle structure that finishes long and weightless. The nose reminds me of Beaujolais. Very unusual WV pinot, particularly for the vintage. I wonder if the whole cluster induced a bit of carbonic maceration, or if maybe the Coury clone is not what we think. I imagine this will improve with age, but it's lovely today.

Didn't take any notes unfortunately, but i recall a remarkably well balanced wine with a fine texture. Drinking very well. Excellent example of Willamette Valley chardonnay

Excellent. Big, rich, dense, long, mineral. Some buttery oak/malo. Taking on some honey/apricot notes from bottle age. Loved this.
