2010 Patton Valley Vineyard Estate Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.2% alc., pH 3.68, 2,329 cases, $38.
Aged 10 months in 32% new oak.
·
Light reddish color in the glass. Strong aroma of oak-derived mocha java
and espresso on the nose obscuring any fruit notes. Coffee-laced oak and cherry flavors with balanced
tannins and a short finish. Pleasant, but too much oak singing bass in this wine. Decent.
