I flipped for Chehalem’s 2003 Pinot Noir Corral Creek, the finest they’ve produced from this vineyard to date. Its enticing spiced dark fruit aromas lead to a medium to full-bodied personality awash in fruit. Loads of black cherries, candied red berries, and spices are found in this broad, lush wine. A seamless, decadent effort, it is a candidate for drinking over the next 5-6 years.
