  An interesting pinot, shows far more earthy tones than fruit. Very translucent and brownish in color, quite light, with a correspondingly light mouth-feel despite it's dryness and acidity. Dark fruity bouquet (black berries, prune..), very woody, loads of blacks pepper, smoke, a touch of dust, and just a little briney-ness. Soft vanilla finish.
  
  A nice light red, yet Perhaps not one for the Oregon-Pinot-drinkers.

  Very light red, really a rose. Bouquet was nice, rest was bitter, short and disappointing.
  This wine was the best of a flight of 6 "dry" wines tasted.
  I will not set my foot in this winery again.
