Porcupine Hill Pinot Noir

Started with match stick, earthy notes, and then opened up to dark fruit bramble.

Dark, brambly berries, earth and mint undertones, rich kirsch finish.

Ripe for Rhys and we like it. Very complex as well. Want more.

Big Rhys fan. Brambly, dark fruit nose. Sweet berry fruit, drying tannin earthy mid palate, lingering dark fruit finish. All Rhys.

A little more going on with the Porcupine Hill than the straight Bearwallow. More complex for sure. Still not as good as the Alpine and Horseshoe.

En mag. Center piece for T Day wines.

This is v good. One of the better bottles of Rhys I’ve opened.

2 chains known to double up

Lighter than any other Rhys I’ve had. Doesn’t make it bad but not right in my wheelhouse either. Great fruit and quality though. Served blind I called it Oregonian Pinot.

Raspberries with blackberry compote, forest floor, some baking spices and nice weight and finish to it.
