Dark magenta, with white rim. Medium+ viscosity. Nose sees vanilla, cigar box, older oak, some white flowers and hints of fresh raspberries. Palette sees tart, caramelized cherries, medium tannins, Medium+ acid. I find Swiftwater to be great wines to enjoy. Not excellent, but super, super solid and remarkably consistent across vintages. A treat that you will be excited to open but won’t break the bank either.

Wow wow and wow. Having this at their tasting room in Suncadia. Just a perfectly balanced Pinot. Fruit forward, cherries and pears. Excellent finish on the pallet. Tried the 2011 but the 2012 was far superior.

Nice Willamette Pinot will get better with time! Tasting pretty good right now. Nice light tannin, good acidity needs more age to fully come into its potential.
