Dark garnet color. The nose is full of cherry cola, blueberry and a noticeable “green” aroma. The palate is more mulberry/boysenberry focused with additional touches of black tea, tobacco and wild herbs. No noticeable oak. A definite “stemmy” note on the finish. Medium-plus finish and sturdy tannins. Tongue tingling acidity and mouthfeel. Nice freshness. Part of the North Shore House Wine Pairing Dinner on March 9, 2024. — 20 days ago
Reddish in color with light intensity.
Red fruits on the nose with light oak, spices, herbs and milk chocolates.
Light to medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, strawberries, red cherries, light oak, spices, chocolates and earth.
Tangy finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This young Pinot Noir from Oregon is easy drinking, nicely balanced and soft.
Good right out of the bottle and good as a sipping wine.
Would be nice to revisit it in 2 years.
Good by itself or with food. I gave it a light chill, and paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

Elegant Ruby color with red fruit aromas and gentle floral spice, aged for about 12 months in French oak, signature blend of grapes from Dundee Hills, Eola-Amity Hills, and Yamhill-Carlton AVA's. On the palate flavors of cherry and black raspberry with notes of herb, licorice and wet stone notes. Soft dusty tannins on a long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy notes. Very Nice! Drinking well now! — 19 days ago

One of the best big Cabs. Certainly of Washington State it’s the best Cab in that state. Very smooth, deep rich purple hints of berries. 2016 vintage. Absolutely excellent. — a month ago
