Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Ruby color with aromas of dark red fruits, black tea and herb spice, barrel-aged 10 months in French oak (29% new, 51% neutral, rest in concrete). On the palate flavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum with leather, graphite, black pepper, tea and herb spice. Pronounced soft fine tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity, ending with fruit, herb, spice and flinty wet stone earthy character. Nice now! Will age a bit! — 2 days ago

Giving this another big score. 3 hr decant and this is bringing a nose of darker fruits. Wine is brooding and big without any forest floor going on. Acidity and tannin round out great weight and tautness. Drank alongside chicken parm. Delish — 4 months ago

in line with the other reviews. An exceptional wine maker, doing everything from planting to pruning to winemaking. Very small production. Opened the bottle about an hour before consuming every last drop. Quite delicious. An exceptional example of Oregon Pinot Noir.  — 2 months ago
