Cuvée J Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Drank most of my ‘94’s young when I first got in the biz. Did not get the hype. As time moved on realized that ‘93 was superior vintage for Willamette Valley. But, Russ Raney killed it with this wine. Lovely, youthful, floral, savory and long. Perfect aged Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir.

Still incredibly youthful and vibrant.

Awesome little winery, outstanding wine!

Not attending IPNC but still trying to share in the history here. What an incredible wine.

Awesome vintage in Oregon. One of my heroes. Delish!

And then this happened at the end of an amazing week in Seattle!!

Busting out the new Burgundy glasses tonight!

Beautiful, elegant, bright.

Disgustingly yummy! Beautiful deep red fruit, tons of life & structure. 12.5% alcohol. Touchdown! Thank you, Russ.
