International Wine Cellar Author: Josh Raynolds Issue: Issue 120

($140; 15.4% alcohol) Full red. Flamboyant aromas of tangy raspberry and exotic oak spices. Densely packed, suave and sweet, with red berry, underbrush and exotic spicy oak notes accented by a floral tea quality. The bright, energetic raspberry and strawberry fruit carries to a sappy, juicy finish that emphasizes the oak spice. Perhaps more Sine Qua Non than pinot noir-or Oregon , for that matter-but undeniably delicious and seductive.

The 2002 Hollerin' M Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir (704 cases) is absolutely mind-blowing Pinot, one of the most compelling examples I have ever tasted from Oregon. Deep plum/ruby/purple to the rim, with a glorious perfume of forest floor intermixed with acacia flowers, sweet cherries and plums, as well as hints of pomegranate and blackberries, it cuts a broad swath across the palate. The texture inundates the palate, and it finishes with tremendous voluptuousness and purity. A great hedonistic treat for all the senses, it will provide immense pleasure over the next decade.

Dark cherry fruit on the nose. It opens up after an hour of air and shows dark fruit and earth tones on the palate. I recall this wine drinking better younger. Drink now.

Wow. This pinot needed plenty of time. Decanted for 2 hours, but was actually better 24 hours later. Bold fruit. Not like any previous pinot I've tasted. First taste showed lots of promise, but disappointed after 2 hours of waiting. Until the next day...

Blood red colored wine with thick legs showing trace amounts of pigmentation. A strong, complex nose of toasty oak, some chocolate, cocoa powder, blood, plum, sandalwood, and cherry with a bit of violet and leather ? quixotically it reminds me of a very ripe vintage Vosne Roman?e. Low acid and tannins combine to make a very plush and velvety mouthful of wine. Some heat intrudes on the finish. A bit of time in the bottle has really tamed what was a very big perhaps too big Pinot Noir at release. Now the wine retains its sizable girth but it has come in to balance. I continue to mourn the fact that the Krankls have stopped making a Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir. Their 2003 "Omega" will be their last.
