Thin, acidic, not well balanced, bland. I did not enjoy this wine and would not buy again. I served it to a guest without prejudice, who did not like it either and asked for something else. This was my second bottle. I did not provide a score or tasting note for the first bottle hoping the second would be better, but it was not.

A great wine. Nice and dry but with that fruit (berries) quality you love in a good Pinot. Like other Oregon Pinots it is light bodied yet wonderfully flavorful.

Notes of ripe cherry, tobacco, vanilla, cherry cola, cranberry, black pepper, and a light floral note. Well balanced in terms of acid, tannin, and alcohol. On the lighter side, more in the Burgundian style. Reasonably lengthy finish. This is a very tasty Pinot for the price.

Worth the $9 I paid at Grocery Outlet, but lacking any real character or structure. Not unlike many 2011 Willamette Valley Pinot Noirs.

Capitol Swills Blind Tasting PNW Red Single Varietals (The Lovenest, Seattle, WA): WOTN, brick, light bodied with nice acid, citrus and smoke on the nose, graphite, citrus peel and grapefruit flavors on the palate, great all around pinot, would make a great Thanksgiving pinot, drinking wonderfully now
