Smoky meat of a nose
Medium bodied with bright cranberry, pomegranate, spicy, with snappy jolly rancher acidity.
Lovely.
That smoked thing reminds me of Tasmania Pinots..

Lots of blackberry, plum and earth. This is one of those very Burgundian Oregon Pinots. I approve!

2011 was a poor vintage, but you wouldn't really know tasting this wine. It hits all the classic Oregan tasting notes: earth, cranberry tart acidity and a soft long finish. Delicious.

This is really lovely. Medium body, Oregon lightness, but depth to@match our duck.

Mild spice, licorice and berry notes on first opening, quite good chilled. Softer after decanting, but still light and refreshing. Would buy again
