These are starting to grow on me. Lots of intensely concentrated dark red fruits, but never into syrupy or cloying. Just firmly ripe. The oak's toast isn't overwhelming and very well integrated. None of the really heady aromatics of Burgundy, but there's a certain beet-and-rhubarb solidness to it. Very serious in a good way and I'd love to see where it would go. Lots of tension.

A richer than expected taste for a Pinot Noir. Definitely tasted better after we let it breathe. Smooth and easy sipping.

Consumed from a 375 mL. Deep ruby color. Complex and expressive nose of plum, black raspberries, and dried flowers with hints of potting soil and pine. Full flavored on the palate with concentrated dark fruit and nice structure but only 12.5% alcohol.

Perks of having a sommelier in the family. Broskis went into the basement for this one.. Am I a lucky schwester or what?

Tastes young. Ripe, juicy, CA style. Some nail polish on the initial whiff, gives way after time open. Maybe two more years before it's ready?

January dinner. Had with butter-basted salmon and a hazelnut pesto. Willamette valley is known for salmon and hazelnuts.
