Bergström Wines

Cumberland Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2023

2023 vintage. Slightly sweeter than remembered previous vintages yet still more than worthy. A fave OR winery and this particular wine (at least in SoCal) translates into their most affordable red. Medium/medium-heavy bod. 03.12.25. — a day ago

Chateau Ste. Michelle

Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Costco. Prior to aerating properly this was a little drying and oaky, and this wasn’t so good. However, following a bit of time to breathe and aerate, this was very enjoyable. Fruits and redcurrant and cherries came out, with a bit of an oaky dryness on the finish but not too significant. — 22 days ago

Quilceda Creek

Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

1/2hour decant(decent fine/cloudy sediment). A striking still dark ruby red color with some bricking. On the nose: dark fruit, campfire, leather, black olives, floral. Taste: smooth, elegant, lush mouthcoating wine with blackberry/dark plum, dark chocolate, coffee, minerals, little tobacco, and a smokey graphite medium plus finish. YUM! In a nice place with a few more years to go. — 13 days ago

Evening Land Vineyards

Seven Springs Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

I really like what Evening Land does in general and their Pinots in particular. Lovely nose with some good cherry. Balanced mouthfeel with good dark red fruit and some nice herby notes. Acid is medium but works well to hold it together and the persistence is good. Really quite enjoyable. — a month ago
