The 2011 Pinot Noir Elizabeth's Reserve has a lovely bouquet with great transparency - strawberry pastilles, red cherries, bergamot and rose petals. There is very fine Pinoté here. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, a keen thread of acidity, plenty of tart cherry fruit with fine mineralité on the finish. Very fine indeed - this is a Pinot Noir that has more to give.

Light and tangy, showing zip to the orange peel-accented berry flavors, with surprising length on the finish. Drink now through 2016. 2,312 cases made.??–HS??Region: Oregon / Willamette Valley Select to Add
