Maybe disregard my previous note on this wine from a few nights ago. I went back on night four and it was much longer and more expressive. And great with pizza oddly enough.

Very good but I'd like to see (my broken record wants) a bit more flavor depth, and a little less soft cherry on the close. Then again I'm getting greatness on the nose, so maybe this will improve.

Spicedwith barrel notes and phenolic notes. Needs more time. Fruit is there but cloaked in spice.

Nice. Cranberries and some smoke or even peat on the nose. In the mouth also bing cherries. Mod finish.

Very strong example of Willamette Valley valiance, a solid Pinot Noire that is not afraid to show its true fruit (strawberry in current example). Agree with another reviewer, it can use a year or two of aging, or at least proper decanting.
