Estate Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir

Drinking amazingly well after a couple hours of air. A lot of the 13s are better than the vintage is given credit for.

Alcohol more pronounced on this vintage but still an excellent Pinot!

Very fruity aromas of cherry, but a very smooth taste that goes well with fish. Tried the 2013 vintage.

Always a pleasure to drink Dicks wines - or wines made from his grapes by others.

2009

Deep, dried cherry, liqurice, pencil lead,red strawberries. 14.8ABV, but very smooth, and barely a hint of tannins.

I got away from buying his wines for awhile, but popped a few recently, and luckily still had an allotment available.

Very good, great nose. Would have liked more acid

The platonic ideal of Willamette Valley.

The grand cru of the Willamette

Probably the best wine purchase I have ever made. I bought these at a futures tasting event at Shea and I knew it was a special wine. The alcohol is a little high but it doesn't take away from the flavor. Dark fruit and cherry on the palette.

Fabulous with free Ceaser salad.

Big and fruit-forward
