Springhill Cellars

1996 SPRINGHILL CELLARS  Reserve Pinot Noir Willamette Valley  This is a "good news, bad news" wine.  First, the good news: intense aromas of waxy, ripe raspberries dominate the bouquet and are joined by mint and eucalyptus on the palate.  Then, the bad news:  the wine's medium body carries  slightly chewy tannins and a bit of bitterness. With some aeration, it softens a bit and the fruit takes on an interesting fermented character, but, for $40, we have to say,  "one glass."    02/06/00
