The Essence Of Oregon Pinot Noir

Red Wine

Rich, dark color. Striking aromas of black cherries, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries are overlaid with a cornucopia of spices. As the wine opens, aromas expand to include pipe tobacco, fennel and red currants.
The palate initially mirrors the aromatics with complex, pure red and blue fruit flavors. As the wine moves across the palate, ripe, dusty tannins bracketed by juicy acidity give shape and definition to the powerful fruit flavors in harmony with a mineral quality, reminiscent of slate and graphite.

 SCORE: 87
 CRITIC: Paul Gregutt
 PUBLICATION: Wine Enthusiast

This is a 25 vineyard blend, with the word "Essence" in bold black script across the label. The wine is a rather insubstantial essence, delivering light berry fruit flavors, and a touch of tomato. It finishes with tart acidity.
