Estimate
A lovely wine, elegantly complex and expressive, with raspberry and rose petal aromas accented by a hint of cardamom...refined tannins.
Sexy, assertively perfumed aromas of fresh red fruits, potpourri and baking spices, with a hint of cola in the background. Juicy and focused on the palate...vibrant raspberry, bitter cherry, blood orange and rose pastille flavors and a late jolt of spicy white pepper. Made in a fresh, exuberant style, with silky tannins sneaking in slowly to add shape and grip to the impressively long, spice-accented finish.
Very attractive, ripe red and dark cherries, framed in ground espresso, leading to a rich, red-cherry and plum palate that has abundant flesh and spicy, cherry-pip tang to close.
...the strawberry fruit is accented with flavors of composted earth, coffee grounds and cocoa powder, all well-integrated and proportionate...supremely tasty right from the start...
Rich and juicy with sweet fruit. Lots to enjoy here... Shows the pleasure to be had from Oregon Pinot...
