Winery Review: One of the best value Oregon Pinot Noirs for 15 years, fresh and mouthwatering with sweet black berry/cherry fruit flavors and Patty's trademark full-bodied style. There's a bit of very appealing field herbs and earth in the mix and a smooth silky finish. It's ready to drink but is so well balanced I'd treat it like a higher priced wine and cellar it for 5-15 years. By all accounts one of the top 3 vintages in Oregon's production history.
My Review: This wine had a very woody and spice based aroma. On tasting, it was vegetal with little fruit flavors. It also had a tannic finish that was slightly bitter.
I did not have this wine with food.
