Fresh lemon and lime, wet stones and a feint dead grass aroma. Next level acidity on this at the moment. Would be good to see her in another cutla — 9 years ago

Arterberry Maresh

Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2013

Tim
9.1

Very nice, restrained alcohol and enticing perfumed notes of red cherry, cranberry skin and fresh, damp herbs on the nose. After 2 hour passive decant, balanced tart red fruits with roundness coming from an herb-y very lightly smoky profile. This thing is just getting better as it gets air. Surprisingly great QPR given I had heard Jim picked these before the 2013 rains, which most have indicated was a mistake for lower elevations - really wish I had bought more while in Oregon! — 9 years ago

Au Bon Climat

La Bauge Au-Dessus Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2008

Awesome complex pinot. Jim Clendenon's never done me wrong. Aromatic, perfumy, racy floral nose- rose, orange blossom, mushrooms, cedar, sap, dried orange peel. Palate is rich in depth opening with pomegranate, dried fig, tart strawberry, leading into hints of firewood and plums with mushrooms and chinese 7 spice on finish. — 11 years ago
