($36; all 2A Wadenswil clone, planted on a steep slope) Bright medium red. Highly expressive aromas of wild strawberry, fresh rose and minerals. Bright red berry flavors stain the palate, picking up a tangy blood orange quality with air. A deeper cherry note appears on the finish, which is taut and impressively focused.

Typical Oregon Pinot

This is an OK Pinot, very much in the Oregon style. Not as big or deep or as colorful as many CA Pinots. It is a good alternative to a chardonnay with salmon or other "white wine" food, for those of us who prefer a red with almost anything. It's good for the price, but nothing like some of the top tier OR pinots.
