Lovely as always. Ripe strawberry, plush, cola, vanilla — a great balance of classic Oregon Pinot noir flavors and young red fruit.

Delicious ripe strawberry, raspberry, dark cherry, vibrant acid, but a round and plush mouthfeel. Texturally a study in contrast. The slight bite of the acid plays very nicely against the rich palate. Exceptional decanted at 20-30 minutes — give it some time to breathe and wow. Great stuff from one of our favorite producers.

Nose of French vanilla, mocha and toffee mingles with notes of blackberry and plum. A luscious, concentrated body yields bright acidity and flavors of baking spice and peppercorn. The finish is supported by big, smooth tannins and a persistent finish.

Decanted 2008 1-1/2 hours. Very soft balanced Pinot with exceptional red fruit, especially a lovely red raspberry palate, balance, structure, & finesse. Well done Isabelle @depontecellars

Love this wine and it is drinking at its best right now. I do agree that it seems lighter then 14.2%. Very well balanced.
