  No detailed notes, but drinking well right now. Lighter style, probably on the back side of peak window.

  This wine is definitely past its prime. If you have a bottle drink it now, don't leave the bottle open, and drink fast!
  Color: Pale, transparent ruby red
  Nose: A bit of the classic Pinot Noir smells remain--dark cherry, flowers, meat, tar, but very muted now in late 2021
  Palate: Light acidity, fine grained tannins, cherry, light smoke (if you leave it open or in your glass too long it will reduce down to stewed tomatoes and not much more)
  Body: Medium light
  Finish: Medium length, tannins, slight acidity, berry, light tar

  Solid again, dark earthy old world style with a nice cut of red fruits.

  Solid Oregon PN, earthy with sweet dark cherries and cola, plush but focused mouthfeel, nice acidic balance and good QPR.

  Popped and poured. Light ruby color. Mostly dried cherry with some slightly earthy undertones. Similar flavors on the palate. Medium acid and tannin with a hint of oak on the back end. Nothing special but a very solid pinot and excellent QPR.
