Yet another incredible wine from Willamette Valley Vineyards! Full of expressive fruit with the perfect amount of tannin! Highly recommended!

2011 Willamette Valley Tualatin Estate Pinot Noir. Like the @trailblazers, it's improved in the 2nd half.

Very complex, much more depth than most Pinot noirs. Still the same minerals and black cherry as their flagship Pinot noir but with lots of unexpected baking spice. Long, dry finish.

Not the right wine: appellation cuvee. A bit peppery, rich red fruit. With family on Thanksgiving!

So, crazy thing happened. Iām in Corvallis for work flying home tomorrow am and got done way early. Driving up to PDX and there are wineries on the way! Is this Serendipity? šš· Iām a Willamette Pinot newbie. This was my favorite of the bunch. Overall they feel like more green, acidic, structured, and tart than Sonoma / Burgundy. Am I in the neighborhood or way too limited for the generalizations?

A bit thin and watery. Not sure I would buy again against the price. Prefer a good cab or zin.

Medium ruby color, nose not a typical Pinot. On the lighter side but with a distinctive taste of ripe black plum, maybe some strawberry. Dry but with a sight fruity sweetness. Tannins not bad but more acidic than I normally like but smoothed out after lots of air.
