Tasting Group. Group favorite, my 3rd place. Quiet nose. Tart cherries. Opens with time in the glass. Complex. Bright, fresh cherries in the flavors. Not quite clean?

Before this one the last Reserve they made was in 2008. This is extra special and will continue to improve for many years.

Yowza! Secondary aromatics are fully developed, shows a meaty edginess, long finish. Beautiful Pinot Noir.

Been a while since I've had an Oregon Pinot. Bright cranberry, tons of earthiness. Tasty!

Smooth and elegant cherry flavor. Fruit-filled nose. This full bodied Pinot Noir delivers cherry excellence. Lovely.

Powerful fruit up front but marred by an overly acidic, astringent finish.

Smoky, earthy wine with a hint of rose petals. Very subtle. Long aromatic finish.
