SAMPLE. Sent via post, arrived with the cork 1/2 pushed out (sign of temperature issues in transit). Still, true to varietal characteristics and well structured. Enjoyable after-dinner drinker.

In general I love the 2011 vintage in the Willamette Valley, but this wine is not a fav. The nose is gorgeous showing red cherry and red raspberry with a touch of smoke and spice, but this does not translate to the palate. The fruit is very light, simple, and does not balance the abundant acidity. The effect is light and tart.

Tight. Good, lingering acidity. Flavor profile is mostly floral right now, but there is red fruit hiding. Fine, consistent tannins. Has the bones to be beautiful in a few years.

Nice Pinot Noir, but really not worth the $30 it cost. It drank more like a $15 Pinot. Lower alcohol content, 12.5%, a little flavors of cranberry and raspberry, but not extremely distinctive.

Per chiudere la serata un buon pinot nero, siamo ai livelli di un buon village borgognone, e è un complimento. Elegante, pulitissimo, alcol perfetto, tannini setosi, frutto fresco, e un bel finale persistente. L'Oregon fa buoni vini, peccato per il prezzo.
