Kirby & Pickle label. Light to medium extracted red. Butter, briar and blackberry notes in nose. Raspberry, floral flavors plus blackberry-blueberry flavor with length, followed 90 minutes later by a low-key Bing cherry pulp and skin flavor. Bright, earthy, light seed tannins. Tasty enough, but decant for at least an hour to uncover the glories of its layered fruit flavors. Varietally on point and a superior Oregon Pinot noir, big and flavorful.
