The 1993 Reserve is fully mature and shows the elegance of early Oregon Pinot. The color is ruby with soft garnet edges. The nose is complex, revealing dried black cherry, plum skin, forest floor, and a hint of spice. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, integrated tannins and bright acidity. Flavors of red and black fruit have evolved into tea leaf, leather, and earth. The finish is long, precise, and layered. This is a wine of quiet authority — expressive of place, vintage, and the early mastery of Rex Hill. A well-kept bottle offers a rare chance to taste Oregon Pinot Noir at maturity.
