Note di degustazione
Lynn Penner-Ash says, "In 2014 we really started to see the ratcheting up of growing degree days. It was both hotter and drier. It was the next really warm vintage after 2003." Pale to medium ruby in color with a hint of purple, the 2014 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley has a lovely open nose of potpourri, pink peppercorn and violet over a core of warm red and black cherries and berries with touches of undergrowth—very spicy and perfumed! Light to medium-bodied, it offers good layers of black and red fruits, exotic spices and earth in the mouth. It’s got a strong frame of grainy tannins and just enough freshness to lift all that flavor on the long finish. This is drinking beautifully right now. 6,850 cases produced.

Light crimson. Some sweet candy on the nose – not really appetising enough. (JR)
Brilliant ruby-red. Dark berries, cherry cola and a hint of allspice on the deeply perfumed nose. Densely packed cherry and black raspberry flavors show very good energy for their heft and pick up a hint of smokiness on the back half. Plush and round; floral and spice notes linger on a very long, subtly tannic finish. This is pretty impressive for an entry-level offering.
