2003 Olson Pinot Noir

2003 

It was an interesting year that ultimately led to the production of high alcohol wines, with great extraction and very black fruit flavors, with some wines showing jammy notes. A dry hot summer along with low yields, resulting in a green harvest, and beautiful fall weather all came together to create intensely expressive fruit. The 2003 wines show intense ripeness and depth. While there is plenty of structure in the wines, it came together in a rich, smooth, seamless way that allows it to be powerful yet graceful.
