Medium ruby/cherry color with a whiff of cheer pie, rose petals and truffle on the nose. The palate is medium bodied, firm, fleshy and emblazoned with pomegranate, bing cherry, tobacco and a drying minerality. The finish is soft and tannic with notes of green tea.

Cherry, cranberry, raspberry, dusty leather, oak and hints of spice. Good structure and moderate tannins.

Very Burgundian in it's personality - subtle, balanced, dry, and with finesse and complexity, which is what I like. Black cherry with red cherry skins up front, some peppery notes on the finish, just a little bit of the green fruit quality you might expect from Willamette. Warning: did not retain it's beauty and subtlety through the next day. If you open this, you have committed to finishing it that night. #smallproduction #ORpinot #willamette

Just an exquisite wine that we got at the hotel in Sedalia. Fruit forward and relatively light like most Pinots but with a fairly rich body and a nice spicy finish. Loved it.  9.4

Lively tart cherry with some pepper and more than adequate tannins makes making their appearance early. Ok with fat and cheese! Would not drink without something to balance Its expressiveness...
