93 Points

Sunday, September 26, 2010 - Sept. 25, 2010. Second Blind Pinot Noir tasting of 6 Oregon wines with the Johnsons. Dinner was green beans and grilled tuna steaks with peach/mango salsa. Beautiful evening on the deck.

2006 Belle Pente Estate Reserve 93.25 avg. for the 4 of us. Burgundy color, lovely fruit, strong finish. C correctly id'ed blind. G and R tied for favorite.

Blind tastings make you humble! We are clearly paying for labels and reputations in many cases. Next time mix up the varietals and open the wines and let them breath for an hour or so (Difficult to do when people coming from a distance). Great evening!
