Penner-Ash
Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir
Yamhill-Carlton, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Ruby-red. Aromas of blackberry, cherry cola, candied licorice and mocha take on a suave floral element in the glass. Sweet and broad on the palate, offering intense dark berry and violet pastille flavors sweetened by a building note of vanilla. The cola and vanilla notes come back steadily on a very long, penetrating finish that's framed and given grip by smooth, harmonious tannins. For a rich wine, there's quite good energy here.

Elegant and smooth Pinot Noir. The finish was a little too astringent and might improve with age.
