Robert Rosado –
Frances’ PnP has good fruit but too much oak, with 14.3% alcohol.
Victoria Wilcox –
Excellent multi-vineyard blend Pinot. Perfect with salmon and bacon-topped mashed potatoes. Great value at $30. Will purchase again.
John Lohrenz –
Winebar has 4 whites, 8 reds, and 3 shared bottles. Harvested 9/7-26/16 @ 24.9 Brix; Aged 10 mos in FR oak. Nice, almost swtish frt quickly met by an astringent pucker. Deserves through ’19, then drinking for 3 yrs more. 93+ pts WA & 91 Suckling. $31.95.
Dante Johnson –
Dark red with stems, forest floor, cranberry & dark cherry flavors. Medium body, acidity and light tannins with a long finish. Very nice. 91+.
Myrna Randazzo –
Great value from Penner-Ash in Willamette Valley. Deep red with blackberry and black raspberry flavors. Medium body but delicious. Nice value from a top producer.
Fletcher Stark –
Great value Pinot Noir. Enjoyed it immensely.
Dudley Carbonaro –
Mouthfeel is nice, with dark black cherry and blackberry fruit. Briar and tension are present even after opening at home. May be too young.
Willis Pierce –
Powerful Oregon pinot with ripe fruit aroma.
Filomena Horton –
Balanced black cherry with a crisp finish. Long-lasting.
Marie Steward –
Ruby-colored wine with aromas of cherry and flavors of raspberry, molasses, red currant, gooseberry, and honey.
Leslie Anderson –
Pinot Noirs (3-OR, 2-RRV, & 1-Sta. Rita Hills) – Aged 10 mos in FR oak. Med body with astringent pucker. Long finish with a tangy sweetness. EXC-/EXC.
Rosalie Hall –
Elegant Oregon Pinot with a complex, berry and cherry finish and surprising body.
Rodney Minich –
Penner Ash’s Oregon Pinot is a great value and a standout among other wines from Santa Barbara and Burgundy. While it has a new world style, it still holds its own.
Melinda Fuller –
Dark ruby with fruity nose, cola and root notes. Tart acidity with juicy finish. 3/5.
Joel Pereira –
Medium plus nose shows orange peel, floral notes, cherry, cola. Palate is wonderfully expressive, layers of red fruits, light earth, touch of oak tones. Great winemaker (Lynn Penner-Ash) and excellent QPR.
Mario Harris –
Intense with notes of strawberry, rose petals, earth, minerals, and forest floor. Medium and concentrated finish. Enjoyable until 2024.
Patricia Rozon –
Floral and nicely spiced with ripe black and red cherry. A hint of new oak. Fun and simple for near-term enjoyment.
Bobby Cage –
Standout wine of the evening with layers of cherries, raspberries, & spice. Most expensive, but convinced us to visit Penner-Ash.
Edna Jenkins –
Expressive, delicious Pinot Noir with notes of black cherries, sweet spices, and violets. Medium-full-bodied with lower-medium tannin and medium acidity. Good length. Drink within 3 years.
John Williams –
“Floral, strawberry, spice and earth. Medium finish and good concentration. Solid Willamette Valley offering.”
Helen Schmidt –
Great wine, excellent finish, recommended.
Emily Odonnell –
Pair with spicy roasted salmon. Concentrated black fruit notes complement the dish well.
Harold Atkinson –
Smooth tannins well integrated.
Deandre Bell –
Complex with notes of spice, earth, forest floor, mushroom, and great acidity. Pair it with cedar plank salmon. $40 retail, worth it.
Samantha Ryan –
Oregon Pinot with tart cherry and cranberry aroma, subtle palate, medium acidity and tannins. Nice, but lacks the exceptional factor.
Audrey Lumpkin –
Light and undistinguished. Overpriced at $30. Drinkable but not recommended.
Mike Brennan –
Savoury notes, fresh acidity, well balanced.
Leroy Bertalan –
Heavy oak and alcohol overpower the fruit in this wine, resulting in a gloopy texture and restrained flavors.
Warren Phillips –
Not up to par with the price. Dark sappy fruit with boozy heat.
Leonard Lockwood –
Cherry with hint of orange tea. Herbaceous. Full-bodied compared to other Willamettes.
Kenneth Katz –
Excellent Pinot with earthy notes. Great QPR.
Audrey Franklin –
Pale red with earthy and tart cherry notes on the nose. Bright cherry and cranberry on the palate. Medium body and acidity with low tannins. Silky smooth. Very nice. 91++.
Thomas Garrett –
Initial funky aroma, followed by a refreshing taste that loses its earthy notes and gains sweet oak. A complex and dynamic wine.
Gregory Burley –
Red fruit nose, sweet cherry palate, earthy finish. Enjoyable, not complex.
Kevin Smith –
Great summer sipper, straightforward with a true valley taste. Best to enjoy now. Excellent value.
Patrick Stackhouse –
Pinot Noir, 3 years old. Shy fruit aroma, bold palate from alcohol, oak, and acid. Flavors of red fruit, wood, pink flowers, tea, and citrus peel. No score given.
William Delafuente –
Complex aromas of herbs and fruit with a spicy, earthy taste and hints of oak. Promising wine that will develop more earthy and mushroom flavors with time.
Tamika White –
Well-crafted with earthy tones, herbal notes, and spicy flavors. The red fruits are delightful.
Laura Marks –
Full-bodied Pinot with musty earthy undertones and classic floral nose. Bold style.
Lola Benny –
Approachable and tasty with sweet young fruit and layers of baking spice. Aromas of Ceylon cinnamon dust and forest floor.
Carolyn Begley –
Soft dark fruit and plum with minerality. Some cotton candy on Day 2. Slightly biting finish.
Dennis Knapp –
Excellent, highly recommended.
Carol Long –
Excellent wine, no detailed notes.
Clifford Caruthers –
Powerful and ripe with six vineyards, mostly from Yamhill Carlton and Shea. Really good.
Jack Puckett –
Well-made Pinot with clean, fruit-forward flavors.
Angela Smith –
Smooth and balanced with ripe, juicy red fruits. Medium finish.
Anna Ace –
Coravin Pour, Ruby Red/Garnet. Rhubarb, cherry, tennis balls. Medium body, light acid. Held up well, great table pinot.
Patsy Padberg –
Superb Pinot.
Mary Sanders –
Muted garnet hue with earthy mushroom nose. Balanced palate with notes of red cherry, anise, black tea, and wet stones. Pleasant but overpriced.
John Ward –
Penner-Ash’s basic Willamette Valley Pinot is a well-balanced red with notes of red cherry and raspberry fruit, tangerine, clove, cocoa, and black tea. It has a medium body, soft tannins, and 14.4% alcohol. Enjoy it now until 2026.
Lena Orr –
Wine is corked.
Lindsay Cardona –
Clean and warm fruit with a liqueur-like taste due to high alcohol. Intense balance of tannin and acid with cherry fruit notes. Limited complexity.
Rita Hope –
Overly sweet with strong candied fruit flavors. May appeal to Pinot drinkers who prefer boldness, but lacks the subtlety and mystery of a well-made Pinot.
Derrick Hurley –
Enjoyed Soft. Nicely nuanced.
Charlotte Montello –
Promising pine, earth and metal notes, this wine is expected to age gracefully.
Heidi Lamotte –
This Willamette PN is soft, balanced, and allows fruit flavors to shine without overwhelming. Tannin structure suggests it won’t age long.
Pat Lumley –
Subtle fruit notes, possibly black cherry. Enjoyable.
Judy Mitchell –
One-dimensional with lacking fruit compared to other bottles from the same purchase, but not necessarily bad. Others enjoyed it.
Michael Porter –
BarZotto’s PNP is big and oaky, not my ideal Oregon pinot at 14.4%.
Dennis Molina –
A light and easy wine with aromas of black cherry, plum, and blueberry, and flavors of cherry, lemon, and graphite minerality.
Toni Tucker –
Smooth Oregon Pinot, one of the best.
Carolyn Sutton –
Juicy cherry, spicy cinnamon, and a perfect drinking window make this evocative PN hard to resist. One sip and you’ll be hooked on Pinot.
Belle Argenbright –
Feminine Pinot Noir with floral notes. Lean finish, pleasant minerality. Slightly diluted.
Dana Nichell –
Tart cherry, peppery, wet earth, and stone. Oak is dominant. Good balance, but not very complex. Fits into Willamette Valley’s sense of “place.”
Ruben Jones –
Medium-bodied with notes of cherries and earthiness. Pairs well with whole cooked salmon with lemon and dill. Not fancy, but enjoyable.
Jarrod Albert –
Solid Willamette Pinot.
Patricia Bradley –
Delightful Oregon Pinot with earthy aroma, cherries, and balanced acidity. Pairs well with grilled salmon and veggies. Great value.
Tommy Windley –
Great value Willamette Pinot Noir, medium-bodied and drinking well. Good price for BC.
Lucille Roach –
Smooth tannins, elegant refinement.
James Smith –
Moderate+ acidity complements raspberry and potting soil notes in this delicate wine.
Nicholas Hess –
Balanced, approachable, sweet fruit with simple acidity. Surprisingly enjoyable after 2 hours of decanting.
John Rester –
Simple Pinot. One-dimensional but well-made and enjoyable.
Helen Martinez –
Terrible wine, tasted cooked.
Cameron Lee –
Perfectly balanced with notes of cherries, root beer, raspberries, and dried fruit. A beautiful bouquet leads to a long, complex finish. Surprisingly, the Penney-Ash entry level Pinot is very food friendly.
Emily Miller –
Balanced and fleshy with red and black cherry notes. Great to drink now.
JS –
Crushed cherries, raspberries and dried cranberries here, together with savory herbs, dried flowers and wet stones. Medium-bodied, chalky and polished with delicious cherries and hints of red spices. Crunchy and vibrant finish. Drink now.
