Rich, deep pinot from Willamette. Nice tension. Reminds me of Tensley, for some reason. Probably because of its luscious fruit. Gift wine.

Fruit sources from 7 organic vineyards over 3 AVA’s, Ruby with aromas of red/black fruits and earthy spices. On the palate youthful flavors of cherry and black raspberry, cacao, tea and licorice notes with elegant spice. Fine rich tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice, cedar and earthy mineral notes. Good value!

Dark red. Cherry and black raspberry scents are accompanied by emerging spice and floral accents. Round and subtly sweet, offering juicy red and dark berry and spicecake flavors that deepen steadily through the back half. Closes long and smooth, with repeating spiciness, a hint of licorice and subtle tannic grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, February 2022)

Really drinkable but with some great depth and colour. Wild strawberries, morello cherry and a bit of spice lead to a smooth rounded finish. Great on its own.

Surprisingly strong. Pretty acidic. Sold flavour throughout the bottle. Tastes bold.

A bit thin for me. Not nearly a big and full bodied as most of the 2018s I’ve had.
