Top Notes For
Brenda Terzich-Garland

Color - a murky garnet. Nose - red fruit, saline and touch of stewed meat with a slight funk. Secondary notes of orange peel spice and wet forest floor. Taste - juicy and month coating. Cherry fruit dominates followed by raspberry tart and herbaceous spices with a medium plus finish.

Pop and pour. A remarkable medium murky garnet color. On the nose: dark raspberry, wet forest floor, saline, orange peel, just a touch of funky stewed meat. Taste: juicy, structured wine with cherries, spice, crushed gravel, and a herbaceous tart raspberry medium plus finish. YUM!

Excellent Oregon Pinot Noir. Will age well though approachable now. Very Burgundian and a top flight wine.

Pizza and pinot night. Double decant and pour. A wondrous purplish medium garnet color. On the nose: raspberry, tea, orange peel, earth. Taste: smooth, structured medium body wine with cherries, minerals, spice, crushed gravel, and a herbaceous plum medium plus finish. Nice start to the weekend!

Elegant, with an initial effervescence and funk that quickly blew off. Dusty cherries, fabulous nose, structured.
