2011 Samuel Robert Winery Pinot NoirWillamette Valley more |
5/5/2013 - Soundcaresser wrote: 85 pointsSlow learner. 2+ hours before it showed its self. Lacking aromatics, missing complexity in the mouth, pepper and tart fruit on the finish. Started to feel like a willamette Pinot 2 hours in. Still a nice wine at 15 bones but hoping its potential is greater. |

2010 Domaine Jean Monnier & Fils Pommard 1er Cru Les Grands ÉpenotsPinot Noir more |
10/10/2012 - Soundcaresser wrote: 88 pointsNice red fruit, very approachable, slightly thin in the mouth, not overly complex but tasty in a safe way. Less acid than 2009 which leaves a little to be desired. Air helped, little young still. |

2010 Sea Smoke Pinot Noir TenSta. Rita Hills more |
10/7/2012 - Soundcaresser wrote: 89 pointsExtraordinarily well made but not my bag at this price point any way you slice it. Dark berry, lil cola but I'll take a bunch of Burgundys at half this price. Nice finesse but not my palate's bag. |

9/9/2012 - Soundcaresser wrote: 88 pointsNice feel in the mid palette, mostly red fruit, lingering finish but left a little to be desired at this price point ($49). Smooth and well balanced but want more complexity. |

2009 Alpha Omega Cabernet SauvignonNapa Valley more |
3/19/2013 - Soundcaresser wrote: 91 pointsA beautiful heavy silky texture, very smooth through and through. Red fruits, on the simple side but the mouth feel made up for it. |

9/12/2012 - Soundcaresser wrote: 89 pointsNot particularly expressive on the nose but enjoyed the bottle. Well balanced, low acid, typical volnay with a wee bit more muscle. |

2008 Barnett Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain Districtmore |
9/13/2012 - Soundcaresser wrote: 87 pointsFruit bomb. Nice spice but spring MTN fruit was in your face, carried the day. Got better with an hour +. Going to let this one go dormant for a bit. See you in a few years. |

2008 WildAire Cellars Pinot Noir TimothyWillamette Valley more |
7/5/2010 - Soundcaresser wrote: 90 pointsNice balance of cherries and earth, well integrated tannins, little spice and a fairly full finish. Burgundian in style. Great QPR at $20 retail, $39 at Root Down, Denver, CO. One of the best pinots I've had at this price point. |

2008 Walnut City Wineworks Pinot NoirWillamette Valley more |
2/8/2010 - Soundcaresser wrote: 87 pointsSour cherries and a touch of forest floor, solid on it's own but didn't hold up much with food (hummus,pesto,flatbread). Light in the mouth but nice coating on the finish once it opened. Drank in Birmingham at "26" on our day off with BB and Cumdog. A good time. |
