  • Wine Advocate | Rating: 87

    From ungrafted Pommard vines planted in 1988 on breezy basalt outcroppings south of McMinnville, Wright's 2010 Pinot Noir Meredith Mitchell leads with strong, cedar-like resin, allied to black raspberry and dark cherry. This is exuberantly bright and juicy as well as persistent, but a bit strident in its combination of phenolic pungency and tartness and with an underlying firmness that for now at least borders on the hard and spare. I want to revisit this a little later on before hazarding any prognosis as to its aging potential.

    Offers a bright red color and vivid flavors, with a peppermint note adding interest to the profile of raspberry and spice. Lingers effortlessly on the finish.

    Located in rural Carlton, Oregon, Ken Wright Cellars is devoted to showcasing the inherent quality of selected vineyard sites. With a clarity and breadth that is unequaled by other varieties, they believe Pinot noir best expresses the character of these sites. Rather than stamping wine with a varietal trademark, they see Pinot noir as a vehicle for conveying the aroma, flavor and texture of the location in which it is grown.
