  Beautiful wine. In a great drinking window. Balanced and starting to show some age. Bricking on the edges of the glass. Red and black fruits and some dried fruit as well. Tannins totally resolved, long finish. Paired w spice rub baked salmon that showed off the wines bright fruit. Acid refreshes. 92+. Great effort. Tualatin valley has become my favorite vineyard for WVV.

  North Willamette Vintner's Wine Trail Weekend; 4/9/2011-4/10/2011: Light, and slightly alcoholic aromas. Rich, with better balance than the nose, but still not too much interest. Mediocre finish... just a very standard Pinot.

  Nice nose of raspberry, green bramble, light wood. The palate is really pleasing, nice red fruit, a bit strong structurally now but should soften with a year or two in bottle. Nice length here as well, and things seem in balance enough that I think this wine has a promising future. 87+
