Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Angular and a note of herbal. Compact

This is good. The nose is gorgeous. I can smell it for days (I have been). There’s white pepper, potpourri medley (rose, lavender), red and blue fruit. The tannins are lush with present acidity that’s not overbearing. That palate has a good spice, less floral quality with good red fruit, pomegranate and red cherries. I’d say drink now, but definitely don’t wait more than a couple years (2022 ish).

Lovely wine nose had a hint of funk when compared to the Bergstrom.

Great wine. Tremendous balance of fruit and earth with great structure and acidity.

Very rich for Oregon.

Very un-Willamette-like. More like a central coast Pinot. Rich cola, with cocoa, and dark fruit jam. Devoid of acidity. Lots of heat and white pepper on the finish.

Big huge mouthfeel has some heat very new world lacks acidity has some white pepper on the palate

First smell is coke (the drink).

Bourg rouge like

Bought at NYV. For me a perfect weeknight Pinot. Just enough fruit. Right body
