Beautiful wine. Earthy, some oak, still very bright fruit with no discernible warmth from this hot vintage. Very well balanced. Wish I had another or three in the cellar! No rush to drink if you're fortunate enough to have any left -- though great now! Now + 5 years.

Willamette Immersion Seminar - Nicely aged wines - short notes (Allison Inn, Newberg Oregon) : Fruit forward nose of cherry cola, floral notes. Palate of raspberry, plums, blackberry, violet. Fruit forward but with a nicely elegant texture...medium weight, long finish

Beautiful nose of dark cherries and raspberries with notes of spice and cola. Medium to full body, this is a big, high impact Pinot but certainly not out of balance. It still retains Pinot's ethereal mouthfeel, while delivering very intense flavours. The finish is long and structured. A delicious wine. www.advinetures.ca

I loved this wine -- stood out among a tasting of top California and Oregon pinot noir from the 2006 vintage. Depth and concentration along with pronounced acidity -- a crowd pleaser with elegance and balance. A close second to the 2006 Thomas pinot noir.

I really enjoyed this. Had a complex flavor profile and was well balance. Best of the mixed case of Oregon pinots so far.

Notes from day 2. Dark red in color. Nose of black cherries, raspberries, mocha, a little cola and spice going on. Palate of lush black cherry cola, some black berries, a forest loam showing as well tonight, lots of coffee, spice going on. The finish is long with a great mouthfeel good, but the acidity is lacking. Overall this is a fine effort for a wine, but not exactly what I would expect from OR Pinot, if tasted blind I …

Drunk much too young. Big style pinot. Dark fruits, spice and some mocha on the nose. Big dark fruits and moderate tannins on the palate. Lots of stuffing and concentration. Nice lingering finish. Give this wine at least 2-3 more years to mellow out.

Medium ruby. Mocha and cola along with some spice and dark cherry notes on the nose. Nice texture and balance with loads of fruit on the palate. Nice lingering finish. Elegant wine.

A very nice, European style pinot, which I drank too soon

Tasted at the winery and in subsequent bottles during Bandon Dunes event; fabulous depth; already showing great balance of fruit and body; one of the best Brick House pinots I have ever had which is saying a lot; has great aging potential, but not crazy to open now as long as you give it some time to breathe
