Oregon Pinot

2005 O'Reilly's Pinot Noir, Oregon
Jen’s Notes
$15.99

This is a young one - drinkable now with decanting but would also benefit from a couple of years in the bottle. It boasts a heady aroma of dried strawberries and crushed herbs. On the palate, the wine is elegant, opting for a less fruit-forward style. The flavors include smoke and rose petals, with subtle fruit underneath. It is silky-textured and lingers on the palate. This is an excellent value in Pinot.
