Translucent magenta. Mushroom, spice, and earth nose. Medium bodied, raspberries, tangy cherries, herbs, fully integrated tannins, a little nutty in the back, and a nice medium to long finish. Tasty with plenty of life left.

Nose: dark cherry, smoky against a backdrop of vegetable and hay notes
Palate: fairly linear and one dimensional. High toned, Green pepper and vegetable tastes. Lacks balance as the tannins are medium dry and the wine lacks enough fruit notes to balance it out

I've just started to dip into my 2012 Oregon pinots. This bottle suggests I may have waited too long. Unsurprisingly, it was fairly big and full-bodied for an Oregon pinot in the way I've enjoyed with some of the producer's sines in the past. Some fruit. a bit of acidity, but little structure overall. It lacked that inner mouth energy that suggests it has the legs to go longer. Disappointing and flat.
