Penner-Ash
Rùbeo Oregon Pinot Noir Syrah
Oregon, USA
Lynn Penner-Ash and her husband, Ron, started Penner-Ash in 1988. Deep red with fresh fruit aromas and spice. A blend of Pinot Noir (70%) and Syrah (30%), on the palate strawberry and raspberry flavors with cinnamon spice and toasty oak notes. A rare Pinot blend that PA pulls off very well. Good balance with acidity, lingering finish ending with tobacco and espresso notes. Nice value.

Jun 11th, 2017I really like both of these varietals on their own and would have never thought of blending them. PA did a good job here, but I think Pinot Noir excels on its own. I give them a 9 because it was a well built wine and a good try. Really like how Oregon is moving outside of just the willamette.

You know that friend that went off to college/live in southern CA, and made friends with questionable people, and you just watch them lose their dignity with every Instagram/Facebook post?....Syrah is Pinot's questionable friend. Sure, it brings out some new aspects, and personality...but ultimately you wish you had your old friend back. (Ripe fruit, a HINT of teriyaki jerky, and well integrated oak)

rather neutral. like a person who makes no impression but serves a purpose even if we know not what the purpose is.

Sep 16th, 2015Very fun blend -- seemed like strange bedfellows at first but the Syrah & Pinot Noir play very well together.

The blend I'm excited about right now: works with a filet of salmon or steak. Can make it as a session wine as well. Looking forward to trying some of the elders...

Jan 27th, 2015Oregon Pinot Noir and Syrah can get along very well together. Think Passe-Tout-Grains only better.

Label says an “irreverent blend” of Pinot Noir and Syrah. Dictionary says Irreverent - “showing a lack of respect for things generally taken seriously.” Spot on here - a traditionalist would flip. I admire the Creativity and irreverence here, but this wasn’t for me. The Syrah dominates.
