Now I know I am bending the traditional rules here as this is just an "Oregon" pinot noir and not a specific "Willamette Valley" pinot noir. Underwood Cellars, however, pulls off a fucking fantastic Oregon pinot noir. The berry flavor hits your palate at full speed and then retreats in a wonderfully subdued afternote. This wine is the brain child of a former Rex Hill employee so naturally you can expect good things. At $13 this bottle is a steal of a deal and will be sure to impress the ladies. I give it a 4 out of 5 but only because it is not a true "Willamette Valley" pinot. Drink it.
