2013 Privé Vineyard le nord Chehalem Mountains Oregon Pinot Noir

12.9% alc.. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. The nose is very shy and weedy with a hint of red cherry and berry. Lighter weighted, elegant and straightforward with a core of cherry fruit accented with baking spices. The fine-grain tannins are mellow and the wine shows good harmony, but it is austere and the fruit trends toward under ripeness. Score: 88. Reviewed September 3, 2017
