2011 Seufert Winery Horseleap Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
245 cases, $30. Pommard and 777
clones planted in Willakenzie marine sedimentary soil.
·
Moderately light cherry red color in the glass. Quite a
bit of oak dominates the nose that features aromas of cherry and savory herbs. A pleasing wine on the palate
with welcome fullness and roundness, offering a mid weight core of cherry goodness wrapped in modest
tannins. Less oak is evident in the mouth, and the cherry-driven finish finishes with some length. The acidity is
more harmonious in this wine.
Score: 89.

2011 Seufert Winery Zenith Vineyard Eola-Amity Hills Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.0% alc., 245
cases, $35. Pommard and 777 clones. Vineyard planted in 1999. Multiple soil types.
·
Moderately light reddish
purple color in the glass. Aromas of red cherry, cranberry and dried herbs are replicated in the flavors of this
lighter weight wine that is a bit tart and tannic. A little oak is trying to add interest, but the tannic sinew and
sharp acidity overwhelm the delicate fruit. If I was drinking this wine, I would chill it or add ice to temper the
tannins.
Score: 86.

Medium reddish-purple color in the glass. Bright aromas of fresh black

Moderately
light reddish-purple color in the glass. Complex array of aromas including red cherries, spice, oak, pine, and

herbal accent. An interesting farm-driven wine with silky tannins and easy drinkability. Good.

Moderately dark reddish-purple color in the glass. Ripe fruit aroma
profile that takes some coaxing to emerge. Delicious and substantial
core of black cherries, black raspberries and plum sauce supported by
husky tannins. Bright acidity brings the fruit into focus and balances the
tannins, and contributes a citrus toned berry finish of some length. A
thoroughly enjoyable drink that beautifully reflects the warm vintage, displaying
its good points (ripe, luscious fruit) without its bad qualities (high alcohols, over
ripeness).
