This medium-bodied dazzler is packing some brawny tannins to back rich flavors of red raspberries, bittersweet dark chocolate and a meaty quality similar to baked Thai chicken wings. Equally juicy aromas match blackcap raspberry jam with bursts of coriander and talc.
A wonderful example of a Pinot Noir at a value, made from fruit from 15-20 different vineyards in the northern reaches of the Willamette Valley. The aromatics are spice-laden, with notes of Christmas spice, violets and crushed raspberries. The palate offers plenty of high-tone berry fruits, savoury herbs, minerality and a zippy mint finish.
