Ending a fun day at Oracle Park in SF to see the GIANTS play the CUBS; won the series! Enjoying great food and wine at the Boulevard restaurant. Medium to dark red with a brown hue rim. Has funky wet earth barnyard and blueberry nose. A strawberry cherry fruit initial taste with a smoke and spice finish. Tannins are medium but relatively smooth. An hour after the first pour, the wine really opened up. Tannins are more smooth and there is nice black licorice finish with a hint of vanilla. — 6 years ago
2021 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 45 mins. Chunky and decently power-laden. Hints of finesse here and there. Much too much too early obvs but time, space and the FLB (Friday Lunch Boys) demanded a sacrificial lamb. The oracle at Delphi was on a lunch break apparently so no tea leaves or entrails read but this needs at least 3-4 years to divine the future. 08.15.25. — 6 days ago
May have held this one too long. Medium bodied at best and lacked long smooth finish that Oracle usually delivers. — 4 years ago
From of of the best for Pinot (and Chard) in Willamette, these wines are timeless and set the standard for great Pinot that can stand with red Burgundy. Finessed but coiled, layered tightly, giving more pleasure as it slowly unwinds in the glass.. Textural character here is great too, velvety smooth, with the acidity driving part of the framework too. — 3 months ago
