Reviewed August 2024The 2022 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard pours a bright ruby color and is focused and peppery with lifted spice and notes of bright red cherries, pie spices, vibrant pressed roses, and fresh piney herbs. It’s linear and focused on the palate, with finely coiled tannins, a ripe feel, and an even and mouthwatering spine of acidity. Long a persistent, it has more nervous energy, with savory undertones, and is a lovely wine all the way through. It’s going to benefit from at least another year of cellaring. Drink 2026-2046. (AF)

Impeccably structured and supple in texture, gathering raspberry, pomegranate, forest floor and black tea flavors while building tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2033. (TF)

The acclaimed Shea Vineyard is long renowned for producing iconic Willamette Valley wines. Aromas of spicy baked cherry and brown baking spice with a touch of candied raspberry. It's ripe on the palate, showing fleshy, fresh red berry fruits, and there are dried savoury herbs and mouthfuls of rich florals. (CP)
Notes
A legendary winemaker and a legendary vineyard combine for something truly special.
