Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir Wadensvil Block Corrine Vineyard

This bottle ran a bit hot on the nose and palate. A bit disjointed. Will give the next a little more runway.

Excellent

13% ABV Medium density in color, touch of sediment in bottom of bottle. Aromas of cherry & raspberry. Nice wine. Corrine Vineyard is located in central part of Chehalem Mountains AVA. Block was exclusively planted to Wadensvil clone in 1991.

I like the 21 vintage of this wine better than other recent vintages. It’s got a nice nose of raspberry spice with a little bit of barnyard funk. The mouth feel is light bodied. Good level of dry extract and well balanced with fine tannins. The fruit and tannins are surprisingly persistent albeit in a mellow background way. This relaxed the structure to age of the time to drink is now!

Cherries, rose petals, earth, hint of cola. Medium body, good balance, medium finish. Excellent.

Red berries, cherry, and herbs on the nose. Cherry, plums, cola, and a touch of spices. Slight bit of tannins and woodiness (oak?) on the finish. Good acidity medium body.

PnP. Funky dark plum aromas with pencil eraser and raspberry tea. Palate serves up dense black cherry layers with a backing of bright red fruit acidity, cola, and some potpourri. Light but persistent tannins with iron, cranberry, lightly bitter stemmy and oak notes. 92 with room to improve.

The nose is pungent and balanced with fresh tones of crushed berries, raspberries, violets, pomegranate, sarsaparilla, tart red cherries, some cola notes, herbs, and baking spices. There is decent depth while this is on the forward side. The Medium/full bodied feel shows off the freshness and forward qualities of the nose along with crisp, medium+ acidity and silky, medium tannins. This is wide open and very giving right now. Even the structure isn’t close to overpowering while this shows off …

Decanted two hrs. The beautiful light red hue of the wine is a good indicator of the stylistic model that is soon to follow. Really lovely nose, loaded with roses and spics a plenty, though it did seem to recede a tad with air. A very relaxed and easy going PG, but with no loss of structure, energy or verve. My wife uses the term 'hot relaxed dad' a lot and indeed this seemed very comfortable in its shoes for …

With Ryan A pretty nose with cherry and raspberry fruit and florals. It's sapid with more red and forest berry fruits, rich and expansive and a bit fleshy, yet not heavy. Youthful.

Light raspberry and a good perfume or floral note.

Med ruby color. Youthful, med(+) aromas of toast, vanilla, cherry, lavender, sour cherry, green bell pepper. A lot more sour cherry on the palate. Med(-) body, high acidity, med alcohol, high tannins. Drinkable now but better after a few years.
