I picked this beauty up this afternoon to have this evening to celebrate such a beautiful day. On the nose one can imagine fresh cranberries, raspberry, cherry, clove, mushroom and dried roses. The palate is consistent about the cranberry on the nose, tart cherry, red current, hibiscus notes and hints of forest floor. There is medium acidity, nice gripping medium tannins with a good long finish. A very enjoyable Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley.
