Surprisingly not-so-great. Nice nose of dark cherry and plum, but a little tired and pruney on the palate. The finish also had a distinct metallic component which detracted from the overall impression. Maybe I'm being a bit hard on TM these days, but I've had much better bottles from them.

Just a baby. Terrific nose of red fruit and Willamette Valley soil. Wet, soggy soil. Nice mix of barrel aging and tannic bravado. This wine should rock in 2014 or so. Patty Green, this coulda been you juice.

This was a very good Pinot. Good fruit flavor with a touch of earthiness. Could use maybe another couple years of age.
