Med intensity and complexity with an earthy nose. Almost a brett type thing going on, but not brett. Flowers, just ripened red cherries, orange, herbs. Broad with some heat on palate. Grainy tannins. Weight felt. Present acid. Med finish. #walterscott #willamette #pinotnoir #oregon #usa #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago
On the delicate side, beautiful nose, great light ruby color, bright fruit, so fun! Thanks @Cured - Will And Coral Frischkorn and #walterscott — 8 years ago

I've had a weird relationship with this wine where I passed on the vintage when I first had it because the reductive qualities were too intense... A 6 months later I was loving it for it's tension and verve. Now here we are basically a year later and the reduction is essentially gone. The fruit has really come out and you can definitely sense the character of the 2015 vintage. I barrel tasted the 2016 which will be coming out soon and I think it's going to be even better! These are honestly some of the best domestic chardonnay I've tasted in my wine career.
