Not the most energetic Pinot around but pretty elegant. Restrained fruit, and still expressive.

2015 Oregon Pinot Noir. Big, smooth, bright, strong cranberry taste. A bit young, but still very drinkable. Hot finish.

This is Oregon in the mouth on the nose and paired with salmon and cheese grits a sublime match

Dominated by high toast oak. Overpowers the sweet and perfumed fruit. Finishes with a clean acid cut. I'd like this a lot more with less oak.

Great fruit with very subtle hints of earth and a nose of wet leaves. A stunning wine that provides even more depth after time in the decanter.
