Wine Review: This dark ruby colored Pinot Noir from Oregon is very good. It opens with a mild cherry-cola bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and savory. The flavor profile is a tasty black plum with notes of gentle blackberry. I also detected hints of cola, minerality and black pepper. The finish is dry and its flavors linger and last for a while. This Pinot is very food friendly and would be a very nice glass pour. It would pair nicely with grilled pork chops. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This forward wine is filled with lush aromas of plum, black cherry, cola and caramel. The mouth follows suit with white pepper, and mint notes intermingled with the sweet fruit mid palate leading to a finish of soft, but present tannins.
