2010 St. Innocent Shea Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton District Pinot Noir 13.5% alc., 922 cases, $36. Yields 2.6 tons per acre. 100% de-stemmed, 2-day cold soak, aged 16 months in 35% new French oak, bottled without fining. · Light reddish-purple color in the glass. Demure aromas of red berries, bramble, spice and oak. Tasty core of dark red cherries, berries and pomegranates, nicely spiced and somewhat savory with complimentary oak in the background. On the lighter side, but displays very charming fruit framed by bright acidity, finishing with noticeable length. Very good. Reviewed September 12, 2012
Winery: St. Innocent Winery
