    The 2011 Estate Selection brings flavors of rhubarb, citrus and tart raspberry, along with suggestions of pine needles and chocolate. It's well structured and proportionate—a good reflection of the vintage and Willamette Valley-style Pinot Noir.

    Perhaps because it is a blended wine, the Estate Selection is showing better fruit than many of Erath's single-vineyard Pinots in 2010. Light, pretty cherry fruit comes with a note of milk chocolate from barrel aging. It's nicely balanced with a medium-length finish.

    Very soft and smooth—like a Michel Rolland version of a Pinot Noir. The berry/cherry flavors are velvety and clean, the tannins supple, the palate seamless. The tang to the finish, showing some unintegrated acids, is the only jarring note.
