Still very drinkable, but not too complex. Very tart cherry and not too much else. However, it went well with chicken roasted with cara cara oranges, onion, garlic, rosemary and thyme.

When I first opened the bottle and tasted, all I got was tartness, like the most tart cherry I’d ever tasted. I didn’t really get anything else. After being open for a couple of days, the wine relaxed and opened up. I got a little bit of lighter cherry, with the tartness more with the tannins in the back of the mouth. A little touch of spice and citrus on the finish, along with raspberry and a tiny bit of olive juice, perhaps, at the end. It became pleasant at the end, but not outstanding.

Pretty straight forward WV pinot with lots of tart red berry fruits a bit of forest floor, tart framing acids. Good food wine although better basic label values from WV.

Light rose red. Attractive cherry and red fruit. Well balanced with a slight tart finish. Not overly complex, but a very nice example of classic Oregon pinot. Good value and attractive for the next couple years. Excellent choice for light food.

Not a whole lot going on. Unimpressive wine.
