The 2018 is pretty similar to the 2017. I’m not tasting them side-by-side but my notes on that vintage are pretty much the same I would give this year’s.
Light, tight acid and medium bodied. I’m getting a lot of grapefruit with the cherry and pepper. Good medium finish. It’s almost 2025 and I think the 2018 is still in its prime for a while longer. 2-3 more years for sure.

Nov 25th, 2024Really nice Pinot noir from Craft. Has a bright rose petal aroma with cherry, raspberry and wood. Smells very alive for six years old and being under $30. Flavors are bright and medium intensity. Plenty of jammy red fruit but with some tangy citrus notes and lots of mild pepper. Drinks very fresh and has a medium lasting finish. Awesome bargain.

A bit reductive at first (hints of roasted apple), then on to a red fruit parade, thin elegant body and great acidity.

Everything from Craft feels so bright, alive, and unique in the glass. This PN is no different. Classic PN profile with a strong sense of Willamette terroir.

Woodsy, spicy style, but great fruit as I would expect from the vintage. Tremendous value here!

Ripe cherry and raspberry nose with a hint of cinnamon. Silky smooth on the palate with dark cherry, raspberry, and ripe plum fruit, nice minerals, cinnamon, and clove. Light plus tannins, medium alcohol, and high acid.
