Wine Review: This light red colored Pinot Noir from Oregon opens with a fruity strawberry bouquet with hints of wet stone and raspberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a graphite infused red plum and strawberry blend with hints of red raspberry and oak. The finish s dry and it mild tannins and flavors fade away nicely. This Pinot would pair well with a pork tenderloin. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This medium hued Pinot Noir shows a ruby garnet color. The aromas show bright cherry and blackberry fruit aromas with herbal, barrel toast and spice notes. The entry is pleasant and refreshing with good cherry fruit, blueberries, pomegranate and some plum. The tannins are apparent, but well-balanced with the acidity and overall fruit profile. The finish is moderately full and well rounded. This Pinot will work well with oily fish, like grilled salmon.
