This is at a peak it's hard to imagine it'll surpass. Thankfully there's a few more bottles I can use to test that theory. Loads of strawberry, tart raspberry and roses on the nose, but the story is on the open, light palate. Peaches, mellow citrus and red licorice expand the fruit, and then it gets a little dirty heading into the finish. Glowing acid keeps it on its toes all the way through. Really, really good for getting change back on a twenty. If you see it, get it.

Not one of my favorite Willamette Pinot's I have had. It is not terrible by any means. It has that funk on the nose though a little weak, some strawberry and some floral notes. The strawberries come out on the palate with some minerality and wet river pebbles. Doesn't have that full mouth feel and a bit on the flatline feel. I just have had much better from the Willamette.
