Note di degustazione
Lively, healthy racy brick colour. Not much nose and pretty medicinal on the palate. Fruit pretty dry. Definitely needs food. My gougère Normand is going down a treat. (JR)

The medium-to-dark ruby-colored 1996 Cuvee Laurene Pinot Noir offers toasty oak, spice, and floral aromas. This beautifully textured wine has excellent concentration, medium-to-full body, and well-defined yet dense flavors of cherries, blackberries, and blueberries. Typical of the vintage, its finish is rather firm and astringent, yet it appears to have the requisite fruit to outlast the tannins. Drink it between 2000 and 2004. Tel. (503) 864-2700.
Medium red. Floral, aromatic nose of raspberry, red cherry and strawberry. Silky-sweet and suave, with enticing, tangy flavors of red berry preserves and cherry. Firm but nicely integrated acids. Finishes with even tannins and very good length. This offers remarkable thickness for the vintage.
