From one of Ken’s 14 single-vineyards, Latchkey, displays big ripe fruit!! Ruby with pronounced berry fruit, sweet nutty spice and very slight earthy aromas. On the palate ripe strawberry and cherry fruit flavors with tea and licorice notes, lively acidity adding black pepper and earthy herb spices. Long finish, fine tannins, ending with bright mineral tones. Nice, very plush, a winner!!

Jun 25th, 2018Very good Pinot Noir. First time I have had an Oregon Pinot. Subtle bouquet. Hints of cherry and strawberry taste. Ranks in the top of Pinot we have enjoyed over the years.

Dec 25th, 2018Best Oregon Pinot Noir I had so far, in spite of its youth! Round and balanced, with depth and fruits. Lovely, and one leaving me hoping to taste it again in a few years. This is going to be more and more interesting.
