I just picked this little Pinot up from my store of choice a few days ago. I had a taste for Willamette Valley and wanted something new. I usually will not go wrong with Willamette Valley Pinot's and this is no different. On the nose I am getting notes of red raspberry, cranberry, clove, cola, vanilla, and some smokey oak. On the palate there is juicy raspberry, cranberry, tart cherry, and mushroom. There is medium smooth tannins, medium acidity with a medium finish. A nice effort and easy drinkability.

Well.... pretty sure we really likes this one. I forgot to log ... that’s weird. I think it was bottle number two that day.

Solid. Good dose of earth from this terroir series Pinot. The 2016 is still somewhat reserved. Could do well to age a bit longer.

Drank 4 /26/17 with grilled flank steak and Scallions dish. A great, albeit less smooth than some pricier bottles, Willamette Pinot.
