PnP. Darkly stained cork with no crystals. Medium crimson in color that looks slightly brickish. Prominent nose of spice and lavender that is quite intoxicating. Dare I say smelling this is just as satisfying as drinking it? Cherries and spice on the palate with a slight stemminess on the finish. Seems slightly thin on the mid-palate. Medium finish.
Tasted in both Riedel Vinum and Vivant Burgundy glasses at 60°F.. The Vinum was significantly more concentrated than the Vivant. We had Mahi-Mahi, so we used the Vivant. If you're having red meat, the Vinum is the glass of choice.

Time has treated this pinot very well. Very nice dark-ish pinot. Balanced and delicious finish.

Good Oregon Pinot, with lots of character--fruit, spice, acidity, tannins. Not too much cola, thankfully.
