Aged for 10 months in French oak of an undisclosed age, this medium-bodied Pinot Noir feels round and smooth in the mouth, with ample tannins supporting gobs of dark raspberry and sweet mulberry fruit flavors. The wine's aromatics are a wall of dark fruit accented by chalk and orange pekoe tea.

This generous version is full of energy, with appealing raspberry flavors laced with blueberry, toasty spice and vanilla tones that zip along the finish. Drink now through 2030. 24,000 cases made.

Bottled under diam cork, the 2022 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley pours a deeper ruby color and is aromatic of candied flowers, sweet baking spice, ripe cherries, and cedar. Medium-bodied, it's elegant and appealing, with fine, ripe tannins, even acidity, and a good length. It's a very nicely styled wine to drink over the next several years.

The 2022 Pinot Noir is sweetly floral, mixing dusty violets and cola with crushed blackberries and spice. Round and soothingly sweet, it possesses a core of ultra-ripe red berry fruits offset by zesty acidity. The 2022 finishes with a gentle grip and lingering concentration.
