  • 2010 WillaKenzie Estate Pinot Noir Pierre Léon - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Yamhill-Carlton (9/28/2014)
    Medium dark ruby, red fruit nose. Dry, tart red stone fruit, acid up front with some bitter tannins, PnP 88. Second night, red berry with a strong acid focus. Medium body and fruit, raspberry and pomegranate with smooth tannins on the finish. This is a change that I appreciate from the previous more fruity versions of the past. (91 pts.)

WK was the first Oregon pinot that I drank after reading about it in the WSJ (Dottie and John). I found a bottle in LA on a business trip. They have a nice tasting room.
