The fruit plays against the toast and fine tannins on the lengthy finish. Best from 2009 through 2015.-H.S. A bigger, darker Pinot with hints of pepper spice that carry through from aroma to finish. Lots of fresh blueberry and notes of blueberry syrup mix with dark berry to provide a superb base note. Bethel Heights' Southeast Block is 29 years old-some of the oldest Pinot vines in Oregon.--Marcus "Aromas of black cherry, black pepper and cinnamon, nice underlying earthiness and tobacco. Dense blueberry flavors dominate the palate, complexing earthy character and mouth-coating tannins." - the winemaker - a 6-acre section of Bethel Heights Estate vineyard planted in 1979.
