Estate Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir

Bought at winery. Moderately extracted purple, great clarity. Mushroom, barnyard and raspberry notes in nose. Cherry fruit leather, mixed berry (blue, black, rasp) and spice, good acidity. Needs time to open. Skin astringency on back of tongue. Can age this one a little longer if you want to smooth the tannins, but drinkable now

Bought at winery. Dense purple red, slight sediment in suspension. Herb, briar, mint, blackberry and a hint of raspberry in nose. Briar and mixed berries in mouth (black, blue and raspberry), slightly tart with a touch of seed bitterness and barrel toast on finish. Paired with local pizzeria's wild mushroom slice and their kale lemon ricotta slice.

Among the finest #oregonpinot so rich & ripe #shea

So many to share this with, yet time for each other is so scarce.

Earthy fruit Jose jumps out, washes the palate with delicately balanced bold cherry flavors. Long finish from med+ acidity. #love #merrychristmas #coravin

One of the best from Oregon!!

Tasty. Brett.-driven. Blind, did not guess Pinot.

Honestly, I was kind of disappointed with this wine. Shea is one of my all time favorite Oregon vineyards, but this one is just too muted compared to other '12s from the area.

Very tasty (my boss gave it to me).

Much better day 2
