Spicy, sharp, tart and deep. A compact mix of melon, pear, green apple and gooseberry fruit. This has exceptional structure and density for a wine listing such low alcohol, yet no hint of sweetness.

Blue Chip is the name of the farm, and this blend, from young vines, is one of the lightest Oregon Pinots in memory. Pale and pretty, it mixes very tart red fruit with spun sugar flavors that turn into sweet coconut and a hint of bubblegum. Unusual, to say the least.

From estate-grown fruit on the Oregon side of the Columbia Gorge AVA, this light and lemony wine seems to show some lees contact and just a hint of toasted cracker. It’s simple and easy drinking, but lacks real depth.
