Heavy bottle. Mid crimson. Big and bold. Sweet and chewy. Not 100% Pinot character. For Oregon not Pinot fans. (JR)

The 2018 Pinot Noir Abbey Oaks Vineyard has a medium ruby color and perfume of wild berries, conifer, lavender and citrus. The medium-bodied palate is powerful and grainy, with spicy, autumnal accents and just enough freshness to carry the finish.

Better definition to the fruit than their Evenstad Reserve. All black fruit, with heft and an edge of confection. Smooth, velvety tannins and fairly soft acid too. Short, simple finish. (RH)

Deep scarlet. Spice-accented cherry and dark berries on the fragrant nose. Juicy and focused on the palate, offering bitter cherry, blueberry and licorice flavors and a jolt of cracked pepper on the back half. Closes long and gently chewy, with repeating spiciness, building tannins and a sweetening hint of mocha.
