nice nose for entry level oregon pinot: just as good fruit as I remembered. Not overly complex. But the acidity and structure is still better than many 06's of twice the price. I got more sweet vanilla this time and thought that was a bit too much given the vintage and for the "H". but very good wine for sure. And great value.

Developed beautifully. Lighter in body, good fruit, nicely balanced. Definitely time to drink this one. Great wine for a tough vintage.

It's Oregon night. Strawberry nose, bigger berry in mouth. Lacking that velvet finish I like but for $22 2007 Pinot it delivers.

Harvest moon over Willamette Valley; 9/20/2009-9/25/2009 (Willamette Valley, various wineries): earth and strawberries, raspberries. Some smoke. Good fruit but short finish, a bit on the lighter side, without all the acidic structure one would like to see. But for entry level pinot... very nice
