Decided to use this young Pinot for cooking and serve the balance with our meal. Having been opened earlier in the evening, it really blossomed from the extra exposure. We drank this vintage about a month ago and the nose, mouthfeel etc was much tighter. Really enjoyed the extra texture and character that developed. Wish I had more!

Retail $22. A really odd smell initially, but it blew off a bit after a bit of swirling leaving not a whole lot on the nose, though. On the palate, there are some good flavors, but a bit lacking in acid. Very Good. 87 Points.

Williamette Pinot that shows promise, but still drinking a bit tight. Might be too young.

Reductive and lacking acid. Quaffable...but why?

Side project from Solena. Spicy reductive fruit to it. But pulls it through on the palate.
