Tried this again, good value. St. Innocent Winery was founded in May 1988 by Mark Vlossak, with eight investors. Ten tons of grapes were crushed the first fall, producing about 575 cases of wine. Deep red with berry fruit aromas, spice and floral notes. On the palate cherry and raspberry flavors, juicy with herb pepper notes. Fine tannins, nicely balanced with acidity on a lingering finish ending with fruit and earthy mineral. Nice Value.

Fruit forward, cherry and plum. What a Pinot Noir should be.

Incredibly beautiful and elegant aroma. Very smooth on the palate with bursting red fruit such as red cherries, ripe strawberries and subtle spices. Just amazing!

We had the 2014 Vintage on 7/17-18/20. Red raspberry and spice on the bouquet. Tart cherry and a little spice on the palate. The tannins were smoothed out. A medium bodied Pinot from Oregon.

Really good PN. Tastes of bright red cherries, earth and floral notes with just spice.

We had this on 1/9-10/18. Really good Oregonian PN. Tastes of tart cherry, raspberry and maybe some pomegranate. Just enough spice for a long finish. Good mouth feel.
