Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2016 Résonance Vineyard Pinot Noir opens with violet, crushed blueberries, boysenberry, Earl Grey tea leaves, warm earth and cinnamon stick aromas. It's medium-bodied and intense, with oodles of ripe, nuanced fruits, expertly framed and fresh, with a long, perfumed finish. This is delicious! A restrained Pinot but still very generous with its fruit. About 1,500 cases were made.

Sleekly complex and steely, with lively minerality. This is not showing all its cards yet, but offers plenty of dark raspberry, cola and spice flavors. The tannins are fine and polished. Drink now through 2026. 1,500 cases made.

Still in the early going for Jadot's new Oregon project, this marks a step up from the previous vintage. Lushly fruity, it mixes floral aromatics with ripe red berries and cherries. A touch of cocoa powder mirrors the impact of 15 months in 30% new French oak. Barrel toast and cookie dough flavors accent the finish, which firms up with balancing acidity.

"Vivid ruby color. High-pitched red and blue fruit and floral pastille scents pick up hints of toasty oak and minerals with air. Fresh and energetic on the palate, offering concentrated black raspberry and boysenberry flavors and a bracing, refreshingly bitter suggestion of cherry pit. Finishes silky and appealingly sweet, with harmonious tannins, a hint of vanilla and strong, spicy persistence. (aged for 15 months in French oak barrels, 30% of them new).
