Plums. Sweet deep red fruit nose. Prunes? Awesome fruit bomb. Huge cherry but not super sweet as the nose suggests. some spice. Nice astringency. Something else in the background - they say cacao but I can’t place that. Great now and prob better in a year or two.

Like most Soter Pinot, good minerality. This one is pretty fruity - cherry, dark plum, fig maybe - with earthy undertones. We had the 2017 vintage.

Good Pinot, but probably needs to sit and integrate for a bit. The flavors were pretty intense but disjointed. Also, im battling a sinus infection so palate may be off.

Good effort here. Characteristic Oregon earthiness layered with some dark, spicy fruit.
