Our 2012 Pinot Noir Clay Court continues to impress:

“2012 Pinot Noir Clay Court Willamette Valley($60) Vivid ruby-red.  Sexy, expressive aromas of dark berry liqueur, cherry pit, floral pastilles and woodsmoke, with a spicy topnote adding vibrancy.  Offers silky, open-knit blackberry and spicecake flavors and a touch of cola that gains strength on the back half.  In a fruit-driven, forward style, with excellent finishing clarity and length and supple tannins that come in late.  92″ – Josh Raynolds
