91 Points

Thursday, June 25, 2009 - Based on our previous experiences with this wine, I decanted it two hours before dinner. This bottle was consistent with the others. Loamy Earth, cherry, raspberry, and Oregon funk. Very silky and bright on the palate, with the same earthy-cherryberry profile as the nose. The acid seemed to intensify over the course of the evening... or perhaps it just stood out more once we finished dinner and drank the last couple of glasses without food. We paid $16 per bottle for our case, but I've seen it as low as $14 on sale. This is a ludicrously great buy for a well-made, food-friendly wine with a true sense of place. We'll probably drink our remaining 9 bottles over the next three years or so.
