Color: dark ruby
Nose: dark cherry, mocha, orange peel
Palate: intense upfront dark fruit & mocha with a noticeable ashy undertone. Well rounded. Bright and long finish w/ grippy tannin.
Alcohol: 13.5%
Purchased from: Freestone winery directly
Verdict: very intense & ripe fruit, well balanced. However, it seemed to lack some finesse and the restraint that some Oregon Pinot Noirs, e.g. Domaine Drouhin, have.
