Boedecker Pathos Pinot Noir 2020 in Brampton, ON

Pathos is a vivid reminder that some excellent wines were made in the Willamette Valley in 2020. There are blackberries in abundance on the nose, with no smoke anywhere in sight. Additional aromas of dark chocolate and chalk lead to flavors of black cherries, rhubarb pie, coffee and orange zest, all backed by zingy acidity. Score - 90.
