Quite bold for a Willamette wine. I don’t often see this kind of fullness or grip from Pinots from this area at this kind of price. It’s long on raspberry, cherry and strawberry aromas and flavors, with notes of cinnamon and cardamom joining in. The lingering finish is nicely integrated and asks for something on the beefy side of the pairing spectrum.
