WTN: Eyrie Trousseau DundeeHills '15...(short/boring)

by TomHill » Mon Jul 31, 2017 10:45 am

Tried this new wine this weekend:
1. TheEyrieVnyds Trousseau DundeeHills (11.5%; U; no SO2) McMinnville/OR 2015: Med.color; rather earthy/loamy/dusty/savory light fragrant/black cherry/Pinotish/plummy/peppery light toasty/oak attractive/interesting nose; fairly tart strong earthy/loamy/mushroomy strong plummy/black cherry/Pinotish light toasty/oak bit rough/rustic w/ light tangy tannins; very long earthy/loamy/dusty some plummy/black cherry/Pinotish light toasty/oak slight tangy/rustic finish w/ modest rough tannins; midway between a Jura Trousseau or Pinot but more fragrant OR Pinot-like; a bit like a Val d'Aosta Pinot; quite an interesting Trousseau but rather overpriced; if you have to have an OR Trousseau, this would be the one; I don't. $40.00 (SFW&S)

Jason Lett is really doing some good stuff down there--your note rings true to his style.
