Enough tannins to cleanse the palate and mature enough for a smooth finish. The nose is pleasant and the mouthfeel velvety. — 2 years ago

This is a nice Bordeaux that isn’t too try or too sweet. Just the right amount of fruit. The nose is pleasant and the finish is well rounded with only minimal dryness on the tongue. It cleanses well for the next bite. — 3 years ago

The nose is different than a Cabernet Savignon but the mouth feel is velvet and the finish smooth. There is some cassis with leather and dark fruit. — 3 years ago

I like Pinot Noir but I would not ever rate an Oregon Pinot Noir above a 9.1. This is just so good. Very nice berry notes, including blueberry. Great finish and actually has a tiny bit of tannin to cleanse the pallet. This one needs to be in your go to “friends are over for dinner”, stash. — 3 years ago

Nice…we ate this with a nice marbley New York strip, and mashed potatoes with lemon zest. The wine went very nicely and cleansed the palette and then brought us back to wanting to take the next sip. A very nice burgundy, not dry but not to jammy. Good fruit (cherry), slight acid, good finish. I would like it rounder, but truly just right! — 3 years ago
