Mar 11th, 2022Love this wine. Great color, bouquet, light but not thin. Great ruby fruit flavors. Good opening red to start the night. Did well with charcuterie and transferred to a light red sauce spaghetti dinner well.

1 person found it helpfulMar 6th, 2015A deluge of rain just prior to harvest made for a challenging vintage in 2013, a "winemaker's vintage" in the Willamette Valley, but there are bright spots, wines with nuance and freshness. Willamette Valley Vineyards is one such wine, worthy of consideration, with classic raspberry and Rainier cherry notes, trail dust, and mahogany wood. On the palate, tart cranberries and pomander ball lead into a finish of moderate length, inlaid with minerality and tinged with spice. 13.4% ABV | Sample

Aug 22nd, 2015Nose: cherry, blackberry. Something savory like butter/greasy chips, cake batter, pepper.
Color: slightly dense for Pinot noir, med/ light body, brown rim.
Palate: dark berries, good acid, nice alcohol ending, leather,subtle spice but still has fruit.
Paired amazingly with Spicy Indian food. Tandoori Cauliflower.
$34 in UT

Aug 15th, 2023Light bodied Pinot Noir. Not fruity- very drinkable. Phil and I both liked it. Gift from Stacy & Clay
