Colene Clemens Vineyards
Estate Dopp Creek Pinot Noir



A real winner. Tried 3 bottles, all were consistently great! Located in the western end of Dopp Road where the Chehalem Mountains converge with Ribbon Ridge, medium Ruby with aromas of red fruits and enticing spice. On the palate ripe raspberry and wild cherry with pepper, baking spice and earthy notes. Young with integrated tannins, well defined, elegant with underlying richness, long finish ending with flinty notes. Nice value! Tried several bottles, now starting to develop more complex spice.

Velvety and subtle, but could use some more structure

On this Tuesday night I have opened the 2017 Colene Clemens Dopp Creek Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley.
On the palate there is cherry, raspberry, a funk note, cinnamon, baking spice, rose petals and wet leaves.
On the palate there is cherry, raspberry, cranberry, mushroom, smoky oak and crushed gravel
This wine is medium bodied with medium + acidity and medium + refined smooth tannins that leads to a long fruity finish. Thanksgiving is upon us and we all have a lot to be thankful for. Please over this holiday be safe and enjoy your families. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Velvety and smooth. Decent amount of fruit, but not overpowering. Mild structure. Mild earthy/fungal nose.
