Domaine Marc Roy Dinner at World of Pinot Noir (Bacara - Goleta CA): Like many 2007s, this has picked up weight and balance over the past couple of years and is very pleasurable right now. Red and black cherry throughout, lots of freshness. Kept getting better throughout the night. Bodes well for its longevity.

The Verticals at La Paulee de San Francisco (Westin St. Francis - San Francisco CA): Forward black fruit on nose and palate with modest spice and classic Gevrey animale character. Slightly simple with modest structure, but this is clearly a 2007 that is not trying to deliver more than the grapes would allow. I was most impressed with this 2005-2007-2008 vertical in that each wonderfully showed classic Gevrey character as well as the unique attributes of each vintage.
