The 2007 Pinot Noir Artist Series No.1 is dark ruby-colored with a nose of toast, spice box, cherry, and raspberry. Slightly hollow on the palate, the wine is firm and tannic upon entry and finishes a bit short. The flavors are attractive and there is ample fruit so perhaps another 2-3 years of cellaring may bring this wine into balance. Trisaetum is owned by James and Andrea Frey with James and Greg McClellan serving as winemakers with consultation from Josh Bergstrom. Aside from Pinot Noir, the winery has a strong focus on Riesling. The Trisaetum Pinot Noirs are all made from estate fruit.Tel. (503) 538-9898; www.trisaetum.com
