Sweet flower fragrance. Still holding on at 11 years of age. Cranberry and fresh herbs.

Yum yum yum, down into my belly. Fantastic wine that could use 5 years in the cellar.

Tastes like Christmas. Very complex. Heavy for a Pinot

One of the top wineries in Oregon and this is his best wine! Tastes like Gevrey. High acid dark fruit plenty of tannins and 13%. Blackberry driven touch of red currants and earthy. Kaaboo!

Drink it while you wait on the 2012 and 2014. Showing very well right now. Having it with seared tuna steak, zucchini yellow squash and onions.

Favorite of a spring tasting with the winemaker - I slepped this wine all the way to Germany to drink it with the head of NPR News/Germany/SWR. A very good wine which traveled well raspberry/cherry nose. Rather more cherry than raspberry on the palate very Burgundian very elegant very classy, impressive! Still very good even with all the changes, airplane travel via Dallas, London, Munich and the Autobahn at 138 Miles per hour. No bottle shock superb.
