Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Accessed by a coravin over a year ago, finally pulled the cork today. Notice the 13.2% abv but this isn't lightweight at all. Dense bing and rainier cherry, pluot, and confected raspberry, with an herbal, slightly stemmy finish that is very elegant. This is what Oregon was thinking about when they said they could make wine like Burgundy (though it's not trying to be Burgundy, which is key)

Very pleasant lacking a little acidity and depth

Nov 7th, 2014Nice Oregon Pinot... Heartier than other pinots I have tasted from this region. Red slightly sweet cherry, slight mossy nose, maybe a little tart berry, rose, baking spices... Really fun!
