Vivid magenta. Perfumed red berry, cherry and floral scents are complemented by smoky mineral and spice flourishes that build in the glass. Sweet and energetic on the palate, offers raspberry, cherry, spicecake and candied rose flavors that open up slowly on the back half. Finishes long, smooth and floral, with slow-building tannins adding framework and gentle grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2020)

Jul 30th, 2024Really nice. A lot of baking spice, raspberries, cherries, rose petals. Good tannin. Large structure but great with a hearty meal.

Ripe cherry and raspberry fruit, with black tea and a hint of tobacco. Medium bodied style of Willamette Pinot. A bit tart, but paired well with food.

Sep 12th, 2020On the lighter side in color, nose & in the mouth. Smooth at first and then the tannins come up and ends down the throat with a bit of an alcohol bite. Dark red-black cheery & maybe plum. A bit spicy- perhaps cinnamon & some pepper. Had during a Wine.com Zoom Tasting
