Really light and flavorful! — a year ago
Blend of two varietals from Italy (Friuli and Alto Adige) rarely grown in US. 37 cases made. Ruby red, very good clarity, medium pigment extraction. Red fruit aromas, flavors of pomegranate, tart cherry, black currant and a touch of plum, not quite cola. Lots of tannins, seed and skin, so decant at least one hour, preferably longer. Good body, lighter style in terms of alcohol, nice balance of fruit, tannins and acid. Props to the winemaking team at Illahe for staying experimental and testing new varieties’ adaptability to growing conditions in Oregon. — 3 years ago

This is why we like Oregon Pinots. This one has a very nice nose and excellent balanced flavor. Includes nice fruitiness, buttery notes and a balanced, smooth finish. — 6 years ago

Shockingly light ruby colored, completely see through, med (-) bodied weight, was really expecting a wine lacking flavor, but this was fantastic! Nose was screaming southern France, elegant, impeccable red fruit mingled with freshly turned soil and white pepper. Stopped analyzing this wine and just enjoyed it. Nicely balanced through lingering finish. — 5 months ago
