Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

I was really disappointed with this showing. It was thin and measly. Finishing with tart cherries.

Second day was even worst. As we would say in England; Rubbish.

2013 vintage. Delicate and complex. Lighter bodied. Structured. Earthy. Red fruit. Spice. Floral. Great value for price point.

Pomegranate, cherry cola, lipstick, and chalky wet tempera paint on the nose. Fruity, good acid but something weird and medicinal in the finish.

Always love these guys. This vintage is sort of like 2011 and 2012 had a baby called 2013.

I think Pinot Noir just isn't for me. I've tried ones from Monterey county, the Sonoma coast, and Willamette valley, and I've never been too thrilled. Part of the reason I don't get excited is because the flavors comes across as bland. This wine receives a similar critique, but it's probably my preference and not the wine. "It's kind of like a flat soda pop" -my friend who was drinking with me and definitely isn't from the Midwest

I am disappointed in this wine. It seems too one-note, somewhat 'shallow'. A nice wine, but I expected more...
At Magnolia in Charleston, always happy hee.

Hard to find a better expression of new world Pinot at this price point

Light and tasty. Fruity.

light, bright, true delight!
13% alcohol from non-irrigated vines. makes my heart sing!

Always fun to taste the new vintage. Red fruit & rose aromas with a touch of brett. Bright, fruity, peppery palate.
