Fantastic stuff, although he is pricy overall for the quality. Aside from that, it embodied the standard terrior of Oregon wine with a distant parallel to Burgundy. Soft elegant fruit, aromas of fresh grated nutmeg and underbrush, with a very present pepper/clove spice to the finish.

Huge cherry nose with a hint of smoke perfumes the room: I could smell this wine for hours. On the palate red cherries with hints of violets and lipstick. Excellent acidity. Great QPR. I bought all our distributor's inventory.

Located in rural Carlton, Oregon, Ken Wright Cellars showcases the inherent quality of selected vineyard sites. The Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is a blend of Ken Wright Cellars' traditional vineyards. Though not at the same level of complexity as the vineyard designates, this blend is extremely enjoyable. Ruby with red berry fruit and spice. On the palate thus fruit forward blend, from 9 blocks of Ken's best vineyards, is lush and full of Pinot fruit, raspberry and cherry and complex spice. Mild soft tannins, well balanced with a medium finish. It is a great value.

This Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is a blend of about 9 Ken Wright Cellars' traditional vineyards, although not at the same level of complexity as the vineyard designates, however very enjoyable. Ruby color with aromas of red and black fruits and spice. The palate shows cherry and strawberry flavors with some earthy tones, honey and cacao. This full-bodied wine had smooth tannins on a well balanced structure, medium+ finish ending with mineral notes. A great value.
