  Definitely tertiary at this point, but still extremely pleasant. Based on this bottle, I wouldn’t sit on this any longer. Dried berries, fall forest floor, chewed coffee beans.

  A slight bit of “too old” but otherwise this is fruity, big, tasty and an example of just how good Oregon Pinot can be.

  Found this deep in the cellar and it is still holding up well for a 12 year old Pinot. A little past prime but still well balanced with dark fruits of black berry, and a plum finish and some spice. I don’t get the cherry other tasting notes talked about. Took awhile to open up and my cellar was a bit chilly so once wine warmed up, it changed nicely in the glass. Still has some sulfur on nose but this blows off. Time to drink up the rest.

  Not a shy Pinot here. There's a explosion of cherry cordial with some earthy and tar notes, pomegranates and some spices on the medium bodied palate. Quite light in colour, but packs a tasty punch. Healthy acidity keeps things fresh in this warm year (A-).

  Fantastic juice. Sad I have to be in "the club" to purchase this now - lucky I have a ton of bottles left.
