A warm day for Weighty pinots like these but I like this style and 2012 is my kind of Oregon vintage. Very well crafted, obvs

I love the 2012s and really like Soter wines but this one is a little one dimensional. Nice and easy. No tannin. Lots of big ripe fruit. But not a lot of complexity. Potentially poor storing by me.

Nicely rounded cherry, followed by a touch of blueberry and oak. One of the best pinots I’ve had!

Delicious bottle of Pinot. Silly smooth with a wonderful balance of fruit and earth.
