Kathken Pinot noir Reserve 04: Quite nice Pinot noir for a quite nice price. Made from 100% Estate fruit, this wine hits all the notes- it's balanced, with very fine-grained tannins, nice uplifting acidity, red and black fruit flavors, and warm cinnamon-clove-nutmeg-white pepper spices that all blend nicely into a wine ready to drink, but with enough structure to handle a few years' cellaring. A real nice deal.

From the winery:

Our estate bottled Reserve Pinot Noir is a combination of four different clones (Pommard, Wadensvil, DIJON 114 & DIJON 115) of Pinot Noir from two distinct areas of our vineyard: Block 4 was planted in 1990 on a U-Lyre trellis, on a slight slope that produces medium sweet grapes. Block 2 was planted in 1997 in very gravelated soils, steep slopes, on a single hanging trellis with intense small grapes. Each block brings a unique component to this blend.

A gorgeous garnet red, our 2004 Reserve Pinot Noir exhibits aromas of black cherries, raspberries and a hint of spice on the palate. The magnificent fruit lingers in the mouth, creating the round and supple mouth feel. Medium acid and medium tannin make this a flavorful example of Willamette Valley fruit forward wine and enhance the complexity and soft finish of this wine.

Kathken Vineyards Reserve Pinot Noir is truly a multi-dimensional food wine; it is good with anything you might want for lunch and dinner! Enjoy this unique wine!
