90 Points The Wine Enthusiast

“This wine's name refers to the floods that brought seismic change to the Willamette Valley millennia ago.
It's as soft and smooth as a slice of blackberry pie, with cut tobacco highlights.
 In flavor, it's closer to old vine Lodi field blends than to typical Oregon Pinot Noir. ”

About the vintage…..
 A warm, wet winter across the Northern Coastal Valley brought about early bud break. The warmer weather persisted into spring and encouraged rapid vine growth. A late-July cooling period that continued into September helped to regulate the fruit’s sugar development and maintain acidity. Harvest was completed by the end of September and the resulting wines show beautiful color, excellent depth, solid structure and firm acidity.
 
What's a Missoula? 
The Missoula Floods (also known as the Spokane Floods or the Bretz Floods) refer to the cataclysmic floods that swept periodically across eastern Washington and down the Columbia River Gorge at the end of the last ice age. The glacial flood events have been researched since the 1920s. These glacial lake outburst floods were the result of periodic sudden ruptures of the ice dam on the Clark Fork River that created Glacial Lake Missoula. After each ice dam rupture, the waters of the lake would rush down the Clark Fork and the Columbia River, flooding much of eastern Washington and the Willamette Valley in western Oregon. After the rupture, the ice would reform, creating Glacial Lake Missoula again.
