Crowley
Four Winds Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Silky, spicy, texturally perfect. Tyson makes some of the best wine in Oregon, including a Pinot and Chardonnay from this site. Four winds is a horse farm, 8 miles northwest of McMinnville, about 6 acres of fruit (?), marine-sedimentary, dense on the palate, acid, fresh. Pretty much perfect. This wine is why you drink Pinot with pork and salmon. Going to be really good in 2020-2021, maybe longer

1.5 liter. Decanted for an hour, this wine was very approachable. In this formate a good four years or greater would bring the dance to you!!! Exceptional

100 cases produced in 2014 from a 4.3 acre vineyard, this is pure and decadent. Nose is sweet, ripe red and blue fruit, lavender, cotton candy, herbs, and soil. A very tactful use of stem inclusion is apparent. Plush in the mouth, firm mid-palate, and an earthy finish that won’t quit. I’m not always nuts about Pinot Noir, but this is both delicate and powerful with loads of character.
