An incredibly lovely expression of a Pinot Noir with a nose of cherries, blackberries and forrest floor that transition beautifully into a sumptuous palate with medium body, velvet mouthfeel, balanced tannins with flavours of chalk, tobacco leaf, chocolate and earth. For the price point, utterly spectacular.

Ripe cherry and a bit of rust(in a good way) on the nose...nice firm structure and acidity...loads of fruit. Very good Oregon Pinot at an entry level price

Nice. Fruit forward (cran/raspberry), nicely balanced. Feels surprisingly light for a 14% alcohol. Like it better than the Wind Gap I've been drinking.

Quite aromatic and concentrated. Cherry, vanilla, milk chocolate and leather (plus maybe a hint of dried tropical fruit). Acidic. Solid for the price point.

Nose: Flower bed, rich in organics, blueberry, potpourri, strong alcohol hidden under the rich scents.

Taste: "oh hell yeah" - April

Delicious, savory, earthy, thin viscosity, warm, slightly sweet after taste.

More like a French Pinot than west coast.
