Had zero expectations for this wine at a party featuring lost bottles from your cellar. It was like a raspberry preserve that you canned 10 years ago and still has the essence of that years growing season. An unexpected joy. — 4 months ago

This 2023 Pinot Noir was crafted by the terroir-focused and precision-driven producer—Martin Woods—with fruit coming from the Jessie James Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA of Willamette, Oregon. This is an east-facing, dry farmed plot, sitting above rocky volcanic basalt soil.

It showcases the beauty and elegance of fruit coming from a higher elevation, wind-swept microclimate, giving voice to this unique site, which was densely planted in 1996 with selections of Wadenswil and Pommard clones.

Winemaking included a small % of whole clusters and a period of aging (19 months) in oak, gracefully contributing to aromatic complexity.

In the glass this wine was medium ruby in color and deeply perfumed with notes of raspberry, cherry, strawberry rhubarb, pomegranate, boysenberry, and blueberry singing in harmony with rose, star anise, vanilla, cardamom notes, a hint of wet stones, and a delicate forest floor characteristic. Flavors echo the nose and the firm acidity holds everything in place.

Almost like a dark-flavored berry compote served alongside the salty, buttery crab cakes, which enhances every aspect of the meal. — 2 hours ago

Some poopy bret blew off in 30 mins and revealed a sheer dress of leafy brown spice. Likely peaked at 15 years. — 6 months ago

Blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Mourvèdre, medium Ruby red color with aromas of red fruits, floral and spice notes, aged for 12 months. On the palate flavors of cherry, red plums and blueberry with notes of black pepper, floral and spice. Fine chewy tannins, long savory finish, ending with fruit, herbs, spice and slight earthy notes. Organic, drinking well, will cellar a bit! — 2 months ago

2015 vintage. Light-medium/medium body. Elegant with just the right mix of primary and secondary characteristics currently. Some earthy tones, some pretty tones. Picked up 3 cases for an affordable ($35 a btl) domestic Cab with a decade of age on it. 2013 effort (not reviewed) had a slightly, off-putting, prunish note on the finish that wouldn’t leave the party so passed on it and went with this instead. 3.11.26. — 5 months ago

Wow. An insane wine.

Nose: sick elegant spice. Almost elegantly oily.

Palate: so dense. Candied pink grapefruit. Mineral. Expansive. Long. Saline. Juicy. Clingy.

Out of this world. Insane inner mouth aromas and crazy ass confectionary aromas. Just a masterpiece. Palate is lush and juicy with no hard edges and top .01% elegance. Just unbelievably delicious. — 8 months ago
