Feb 24th, 2018Vivid red. Zesty, spice-accented red berries and cherry on the incisive nose and in the mouth. Lithe and precise, carrying no excess weight; a touch of sweet rose pastille emerges as the wine opens up. In a clean and racy style, finishing with firm spicy bite and fine-grained tannins that lend shape and subtle grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, Dec 2016)

Jul 28th, 2017This is a terrific value at $15. This is better than many other OR Pinots at twice the price. Excellent balance and very good fruit without being close to over extracted. Light color, red fruit, spices, medium bodied, decent finish. What more could you want for $15.

Jun 13th, 2024Cherries, spice, cranberry, some rocks, flowers, lingering finish, pine forest. Love it. Everything I’d want from a weeknight Oregon pinot. Crushable but makes you think about it just enough.

May 3rd, 2024Youch. This is the worst type Oregon Pinot. Light, sour and one dimensional. Like the worst of the 2007s. Surprising because 2018 is usually solid.
