Aug 29th, 2019This pinot noir from Pike Road Wines, the sister winery of Elk Cove Vineyards, defies its $19 price tag by offering a fantastic example of Willamette Valley, Oregon pinot noir: brambly, dusty, earthy, and herbal. I'm absolutely pairing this with salmon. Cheers! (sample)

1 person found it helpfulFeb 25th, 2017One of the better in the under $20 Oregon Pinot category I've tasted of late, the 2014 Pike Road is an off shoot winery managed by the Elk Cove team. Replete with twiggy black tea notes, rose petals, cranberry compote, iron ore and dried blood, it's clean and linear on the palate, more red fruited than black, with bright acidity that dwindles to a slightly herbaceous, rustic finish of fresh bark dust, spice, and mulch.

Mar 31st, 2024Medium garnet with a clear edge, strong nose of dark red & black fruits with some smoke on top. Fairly light in the mouth with same dark fruits, smoke and some earth. Can stand up to stronger flavor foods-
