An absolutely delightful bottle of Pinot. Brilliant red color in the glass. Intense and spicy cherry/pomegranate fruit on the nose, with hints of oak. The palate features racy acidity, wonderfully spiced, all-encompassing fruit, again highlighted by a bit of oak.

Really good Pinot for $18. Good spice some oak and not sweet. Well balanced. Will have to check out the winery next time we are in Willamette Valley!

Strawberry and cherries mildly present as a relatively fruit forward yet not overbearing Oregon Pinot.
