Light-medium cherry color. Very light on palate with somewhat muted cherry and baking spices. Significant improvement with air (about 30 minutes) on both counts. Nice but not plus finish. Elegant and right with foods that won't over power

Quite elegant for a 2009. Well balanced with pronounced acidity (a good thing). More on the red fruit end of the scale than the last bottle. Nicely made and very enjoyable now. Should be good for the next 5 years or so.

Distinct light puple that is a gracious pure expression of Oregon pinot noir. Cherry, light cola, tea, witha faint hint of eucalyptus. Softer refined tannins lead to a long but delicate finish.

Medium ruby. Willamette red fruit, well-controlled tannins. A nice, easy going Oregon pinot.
