The A to Z Wineworks Oregon Pinot Noir opens with compelling aromatics suggesting red fruit (berries, plum, cranberry, pomegranate), spice (clove, turmeric, gingerbread), herbs (tea, thyme, mint, lavender), wood (spruce, cedar) and savory (bacon, dried mushroom) notes. The palate is succulent and round, with flavors like blackberry, black cherry, and pomegranate at the forefront. The oak profile adds complexity with hints of sandalwood, mesquite, vanilla, sweet spices, coffee, and chocolate. Structured tannins pair with fresh, balanced acidity to give the wine focus and precision as well as length. Faint flavors of cherry, purple flowers, and an herbal touch linger on the finish. The expressive A to Z Wineworks Oregon Pinot Noir presents a generous personality.
Wine Enthusiast: 89 Points
Even with 5% Merlot and 4% Syrah blended in, this wine is light as light can be, with wispy tannins and modest acidity. Raspberry and pine-needle scents are joined by a meaty aroma that may give you a hankering for pork chops. The wine's airy mouthfeel is almost spritzy, with Rainier cherry and lemon flavors. -M.A.
