Medium extracted purple red. Briar and raspberry notes in nose. Tart cherry, raspberry, cassis and barrel smoke notes in mouth. Soft, some tongue astringency with seed bitterness in finish. Solid balanced Oregon Pinot

Armstrong Vyd Ribbon Ridge AVA. Dense purple in color. Briar and mint notes in nose. Briar, spearmint, raspberry and blueberry in mouth. Large grain astringency on front quarter of tongue. Solid basic Oregon Pinot noir - it's about the fruit, not the oak, here

Loaded with that Oregon earth. So, so good with Bourbon Orange Salmon. Fired up the grill for the first time this year. WooHoo.

Very nice 2012, tons of flavor, nicely ripe, but good balance too.

A light on with some floral and raspberry / cherry flavors. It’s growing on me.

Big, but not out of balance. Great nose. Soft in the middle (In a good way) with strong red fruit front and back. Good stuff.

Amazing nose, but a bit flat on the palate.
