description: Many Oregon wineries made elegant, appealing wines in 2004, but the estate's unusual location does better in warmer years. This Parson's Ridge bottling is full of the dried herb and leaf scents that can dominate Oregon's less-fortunate vineyards, with some relief provided by the cinnamon and cocoa flavors from the barrel aging. But where's the fruit?
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Parson's Ridge
