Wow, I didn’t peg this for an Oregon Pinot Noir! I just tasted it blind and thought for sure it was a Bordeaux blend. 🤷🏻♀️ 🇫🇷 🇺🇸

👃On the nose this wine had a medium(+) intensity of developed aromas. Aromas include notes of baked black cherry, cassis, plum, dried fig, violet, rose, potpourri, incense, earth, wet autumn leaves, cedar, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, licorice, and leather.
👄 On the palate this wine is dry. It has medium(+) acidity, a medium(+) body, high alcohol, medium(+) tannins, medium(+) intensity in flavors consistent with the nose. The finish is medium(+).

Deep ruby hue, medium concentration and clarity. Secondary hues of garnet. Moderate tearing. Nose has elements of tart cherry, strawberry preserves, juicy pomegranate, dried fennel seeds, herbs de Provence, nutmeg, and allspice. On the palate it strikes a balance with strong fruit characteristics and acidity. Delightful Pinot from the Dundee Hills of Willamette Valley, Oregon.

Velvety smooth. Low acid. Dark berries. Watermelon? Quite tasty.
