Based on critic scores and price, this wine represents outstanding value.
Critic tasting note: (2019 vintage) "Averaen does an entry-level Willamette Valley bottling along with a lineup of single vineyard cuvées. The Flood Line blend is the middle tier, offering classic Oregon Pinot composition from this AVA. The earthy underpinnings nicely match the mix of red plum, strawberry and pie cherry fruit. Though not a big wine, it's fully ripened and sets the leafy herbal elements and pretty fruit against tea-like tannins with a touch of chicken stock. It was aged before bottling for 14 months in one-third new French oak. Paul Gregutt" - Wine Enthusiast

2019 Vintage
Tasted: Mar 2022
Averaen does an entry-level Willamette Valley bottling along with a lineup of single vineyard cuvées. The Flood Line blend is the middle tier, offering classic Oregon Pinot composition from this AVA. The earthy underpinnings nicely match the mix of red plum, strawberry and pie cherry fruit. Though not a big wine, it's fully ripened and sets the leafy herbal elements and pretty fruit against tea-like tannins with a touch of chicken stock. It was aged before bottling for 14 months in one-third new French oak. Paul Gregutt
2018 Vintage
Tasted: Jul 2021
This was given 14 months in 40% new French oak, and the high alcohol also indicates the winemaker's target style. It's a big, bold, muscular, tannic wine, with an abundance of ripe berry fruit. Don't look for typical Pinot Noir finesse—this comes on sharp, hot and fruity. Paul Gregutt
2017 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2020
The raspberry fruit, with plenty of leaf and stem flavors, comes across as a bit thin. Fermented with native yeast and 30% stems, it spent a year in 40% new French oak, leaving a light impression of cinnamon. Paul Gregutt
