title: Willamette Valley Vineyards 2011 Signature Cuvée Pinot Noir (Willamette Valley)
description: The winery identifies this as their reserve-level wine, giving it 14 months in 50% new French oak barrels. Raspberry and cherry flavors are prominent, along with scents and flavors of cookie dough. The wine has moderate depth and length, although the tannins turn a little bitter. Some additional bottle age should help smooth it out.
variety: Pinot Noir
