Big. Plenty of oak. Good fruit. Good overall but not my style.

In a big, hulking phase now, but packed with blue & black fruits primed for development. Super smooth w/ an impressively long finish.

Mo makes awesome Pinot Noir. This is a big and juicy wine that is not obtrusive. Plenty of black and red fruit, acidity and tannin. This is a wine you can age.

More complex than many Oregon Pinots. Cranberry, raspberry and earth.

This is a delight. Starting to come into its own. Bright acidity, plenty of red fruits with some nuances of forest floor and mushrooms.

Had spicy notes at first. But after it breathed it became smoother

Excellent wine. A lot of fruit, young. Told that it would benefit from some time in the bottle.
