Tasted much younger than it is. Sour cherry, a bit of lavender, Dundee hills funk. Nice finish. It seems like it has life left. This is one of those 2007 wines that did well. Location and winemaker matter.

Another winner, bright sour cherry shot through with funky mushroom and forest floor. Ample acid makes this incredibly food-friendly, while moderate complexity makes it enjoyable all on its own. Terrific QPR.

A great QPR at $17. Love the acidity, nice tart red fruits, and a bit of earthiness. Decent body for an 07 and an inexpensive one. While not overly complex, far from a simple wine. Nice middle of the week drinker.

Damn this is good stuff. Earthier than previous bottles, verging on barnyard, but delicious and mixed with a bright cherry profile. Funkiness toned down some with air, revealing (once again) an awesomely good OR pinot for well under $20.

Dark magenta hue in the glass. Some barnyard funk blew off to reveal classic Oregon pinot noir flavors of cherries, raspberries and just a touch of earth. Balanced acidity and a decent finish.
