June 2, 2012 - Surprisingly young fruit taste for an '05 at this point. Not complex, but an agreeable wine with pan-seared salmon and a salad of corn and sautéed shrimp. Won't look to buy again.

January 16, 2012 - Dark ruby color, sweet raisin nose. Black cherry predominates and is still tightly-wound raisin, cranberry and cola. bit of tar. Strong structure and medium finish.

November 13, 2010 - Deep garnet with a strong dark red fruit nose. It took 10 minutes for an overbearing nose to blow off this wine, and then it was delightful. Still a bit strong, I'm going to keep my last 2 bottles for 2011 and 2012. Distinct black cherry layers, some cola, excellent balance and finish. I don't always disagree with the CT reviews, but I'm with Wine Spectator on this one.

November 14, 2009 - based upon the CT reviews I pulled my only Carter PN bottle and gave it to the DW to use as cooking wine. I have lots of great Oregon PN's, no reason to drink bad ones. Thanks fellow CT winos for the heads up!

November 7, 2009 - This was just bad... quite harsh nose, acidic, and disjointed. Astringent mid-palate, off balanced, gross fruit. Hot, harsh, and astringent finish. This was just completely out of whack for me, and even my small pour was hard to get down. I'd have a tough time drinking a full glass. I'm probably over scoring this...
