2009 Angela Clawson Creek Vineyard Oregon Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $45. A tall, very heavy bottle. Clones
777, Wädenswil and 115. The winemaker is Ken Wright.
·
Moderate reddish-purple color in the glass. Savory
nose offering aromas of mushrooms, wet leaf, oak and pharmaceutical notes with dark red cherries and berries
in the background. Redder fruits are featured with a touch of blueberries, pomegranate and spice. Fairly silky
on the palate, but exhibiting firm prodigious tannins, finishing juicy with a bright nerve of acidity. The fruit is
buried in the tannins at present. Good.

oak.
·
Dark reddish-purple robe. Fragrant aromas of black cherry, plum,
prune and toasted oak entice. A plush and rich palate of black cherry, cassis
and blackberries with a subtle woodsy note. Smooth with soft tannins and a
healthy acid spine. A compelling wine of great merit.
