This is what I expect from great Pinot in Oregon. Hints of dried blueberry, strawberry, clove on the nose. Bright cherry, cinnamon and clove on palate — 9 years ago
Surprised how the wine tastes a bit older and few tannins for a 2012. Leather and cooked raspberries on the nose, coffee and blackberry on palate very soft tannins and finish. Not suitable to age — 9 years ago
Red currant, allspice on nose. Tart raspberry and all spice — 9 years ago

Got this wine in Oregon for a steal apparently. Nice soft nose of cherry, strawberries and red cassis. Palate cherries, cinnamon and slight nutmeg. Very light tannins. Drink now not going to age — 9 years ago
Strawberry mushroom on nose. Short finish on palate, strawberry cherry and red currant. Much better this vintage than later tastings — 9 years ago
