2007 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir Tasting Notes

The color is bright garnet! The aroma is a wonderful red cherry and cranberry fruit, chocolate spice, and a neat earth "Jory soil after a fall rainstorm"-like hint. The flavor is bright, complex, and fun! Look for red fruit of cherry and cranberry, cobbled mineral, Siskiyou forest floor, and black pepper spice. The red fruit fills and carries throughout the palate in a mouthwatering sweet centered finish!


2008 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir should be released in February 2010.

 

Wine Scores and Reviews for 2007 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

  • 2007: Wine Advocate 90   "The 2007 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley is medium ruby-colored with an enticing bouquet of toast, cinnamon, rose petal, cherry, and cranberry. Sweet and seamless on the palate, this elegant effort has a bit of structure, excellent concentration, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. Drink it over the next 6 years."
  • 2007: Wine Spectator 89   "Almost 15,000 cases are made of this sturdy, solid Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. It’s got more muscle and weight than the cheaper stuff from elsewhere, though not the textural interest and nuance of many single vineyard bottling. So it falls, right in the middle, and is priced accordingly, delivering red fruits, hints of herb, light toast and coffee-flavored tannins."
  • 2006: International Wine Cellar 88   "Light red. Spicy raspberry and cherry on the nose, with a light kiss of bitter chocolate adding complexity. Smooth red fruit flavors become chewier with air, picking up dusty tannins and finishing with solid grip and good persistence."
  • 2005: Wine Spectator 91   "Light, bright and refreshing, with nice, pure dark berry and a hint of smoke mingling on the lively finish. Drink now through 2008. 19,700 cases made. -HS"
  • 2004: Wine Spectator 89   "Light and tangy, brimming with red cherry, raspberry and sweet spice aromas and flavors, nicely framed with a subtle touch of oak. Has tremendous appeal, although the finish gets a bit sharp. Drink now through 2010. 3,156 cases made. -HS"
  • 2003: Wine Spectator 89   "The lithe, lissome style has lovely currant, plum and subtle spice flavors, real presence and a finish that lets the flavors linger without intruding. Drink now through 2008. 20,229 cases made. -HS"   Top 100 Wines, Dec 2003
