  This is really a very nice Pinot but for those looking for a more bold style this is not it. The wine has a lovely garnet color and gives a bouquet filled with bay leaves, raspberry and pepper. On the palate the wine is light and silky upon which it delivers a delicate balance of fine tannins, lovely acidity and a flavor profile suggesting strawberries, sassafras and and herbs. Yes, there is a hint of heat on the back end. This is my 2nd of 6 bottles and I honestly believe this is the intended style of this wine. While not my favorite Oregon pinot by any means, I do think it provides an enticing tasting experience. I will not taste this for at least another year to see whether the heat dissipates. Regardless, it is certainly a very enjoyable wine that offers a great deal of finesse.

  Nice, but overpriced for what it delivers. Plum, a bit of menthol, then settles into a somewhat flatter version of Dundee Hills pinot. Rich dark cherry, ripe, superficially resembling the 07 Anderson.
