Community Tasting Note

MotoMannequin Likes this wine:

Monday, March 11, 2013 - Bought at the BevMo $0.05 sale on what might have been a disrespectful tribute to my late friend Bob Wood, but this is the only way I could possibly get a 2007 Willamette Valley Pinot in Livermore on short notice.

Pop-n-pour. Color shows a light garnet color that looks slightly oxidized for an '07. Nose is predominantly savory, with weathered wood, forest floor, and a whiff of menthol released with a swirl. Light body with some plum lingering in the background, but mostly grassy and earthy notes with mushrooms and forest floor on the finish. With air the body starts to flesh out and cherries come to the fore.

I like this wine at half price. Sorry it took such a loss to open one. RIP Bob.
