2013 Cooper Mountain Vineyards Willamette Valley Oregon Pinot Noir

13.0% alc., $25. Winemaker Gilles de Domingo. Certified Biodynamic® by Demeter®. · Light cherry red color in the glass. Shy aromas of red cherry are accompanied by notes of tea leaf and tobacco. The light to mid weight flavors of red cherry and berry are underlain with an herbal thread suggesting the fruit was under ripe. Rather plain, with soft tannins and a slight medicinal note. This wine fails to challenge the senses but is very drinkable. Score: 86. Reviewed August 29, 2016
