December 17, 2018 - Wow! This wine finally opened up and it's terrific. Until now it has been as tight as granite. Now it's an explosion of red and blue fruit, it's suave and complex, and very classy. The tannins are liked polished glass. The warm, fruit driven finish lasts at least a minute. The balance leans slightly towards acidic and so this would pair great with a fatty salmon or other terrific meal.

Roentgen Ray Does not like this wine: 85 points
April 22, 2015 - Tight and a little chalky. Maybe it needs a lot of time to open up. It was in a similar place as when I first tasted it from the producer and his daughter, or maybe this is all it has. I have one more bottle, maybe its the Willamette Valley version of Domaine de Montille (known for long lived Pinot).

September 5, 2014 - We received this as a library selection for our wine club pick up over Labor Day Weekend of 2014. It is a beautiful wine for its age and if you have any in your cellar, it is time to drink. Elegant is a good description. It paired beautifully with our pork tenderloin tonight.

November 8, 2012 - Good solid Pinot. Agree that it lacks a bit in complexity, and it's on the thin side, even for a Pinot. Agree with the note calling it elegant. Nice mouth feel and finish, but definitely not full bodied. Red fruit for sure and a better nose by far than the last couple I've had.

April 21, 2012 - No formal notes, had this with two 2006 Winderlea's and this finished third. This was a nice wine but didn't have the complexity of the Winerdleas.
