Boulder Bluff Pinot Noir 2019

Reddish/ purplish in color with light intensity.

Soft on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red currants, cherries, earth, black coffee, light oak, spices, herbs and black tea.

Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very tasty Pinot Noir from Oregon. Elegant and nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel.

This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is complex, spicy and entertaining.

Wine Enthusiasts 92 points. Wine Spectator 88 points.

Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 to 10 years. A little longer for this Magnum.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

100% Pinot Noir grapes were grown on volcanic soils from 25 year old vines. Drunk from a Magnum.

13% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$85 (750ml).

Earthy, meaty, leathery, darkly fruited. Class, breed, finesse. Classic old school Ribbon Ridge Pinot. This wine needed these 15 years to express all that. I expect at least another five years of aging potential. — 2 years ago

Margo Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir 2022

2022 vintage. The curious case of the pinot noir where the mid-palate remarkably remained as if on command. Bright as a bell. Would not transition to the finish. Just stood there, in the middle of the tongue, blocking the traffic. Curious enough to buy two cases at $35 a bottle. 3.11.26. — 14 days ago

Reminds me more of a Burgundy than a US Pinot Noir. Lovely wine. Black tea, cherry, strawberry. — 3 years ago

Five Mountain Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir 2022

Ruby with elegant red fruit aromas and gentle floral spice, aged for 10 months in French oak. On the palate flavors of cherry and cranberry with notes of tea, herb pepper with wet stone notes. Soft tannins on a long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes. Very Nice! — 2 months ago
