Vineyards owned by Tony Soter's at Mineral Springs Ranch in the Yamhill-Carlton District of the Willamette Valley. Bright Ruby with red fruit aromas and herb spice. On the palate pronounced fruit of sweet plum, raspberry and currants, spice and cacao notes. Soft dusty tannins on lingering finish ending with an earthy character. Nicely Done!

Silky and fruity. Would like to have a little more earthy qualities, but very nice.

Desiccated leaves, stewed plums, and oranges marmalade move into blueberry pie and cherry notes. There’s a richness that’s pleasurable but it’s a bit unhinged. Overly fruit punch like with not enough tannin or acid to hold up.

Solid but nothing to write home about. Fallback, if anything.

Cherry cola, plum skin, hints of licorice. Mouth filling fruit but not as much earth as I'm used to from Oregon pinots. Still very enjoyable bottle of pinot.
