Agree with yipen, this wine still has life in it. Full of secondaries at this point which were changing all the time. This bottle needed decanting. There is a little harsh va on it that somehow doesn't detract. I enjoyed this a lot. The winemaker cautioned me a few weeks ago to drink up..these were not going to last much more.

Another very sturdy '02 Oregon Pinot. Medium body w/ good depth and moderate tannins that need a little more time. Wait! I'm trying to remember to drink my '03's while waiting for the '02's to soften.
