  Tasting at a LWS and meeting an old friend for the first time (WRW): I brought this from home to add to the tasting. Dark ruby in color. 08 was a ripe vintage but this is starting to come around nicely. This was big in its youth but the seams have come together and though it has a lot of time left, it is showing well. Not quite at peak. Cherries and dark cherries on the nose. Clean. On the palate, there is some laying here. Dark cherry fruit prevails. Depth and slight layering. Good acidity. Nice finish. It is often hard to have patience with the non vineyard designate wines, but this one was worth it IMO.

  Held great promise at opening w/ strong ripe fruit on nose. First sips the best with typical cherry/ current notes. However, fruit faded quickly, and by Day 2 was almost completely absent. If I had more, I'd be drinking them up now.

  Purple in color. Nose of cherry, dark fruits. Still some tannins remaining; the fruit is black cherry. Last bottle, but this is still drinking very well.

  Solid WV Pinot. Darker fruit than most OR Pinot's, very RRV like. Very smooth with good acidity. Liked this a lot!
