Lighter bodied wine with cherry, berry and sandalwood on the nose. Easy drinking if a bit austere with notes of tobacco, cherry, strawberry and stone. A nice break from the overly concentrated sap that is so prevalent today.

Nice translucent color on the light to medium side; some brick starting to creep in at the edge. On the nose: Maraschino cherries, plums steeped in rum, beetroot, nice and rounded, good volume On palate good mouthfeel, ripe, nicely balanced. nice complexity, too. Not a great but a really enjoyable wine

Garnet, ruby color with the slightest touch of brownish at the rim; Classical Pinot Noir nose: ope n, fruity, nice acidity in the background. On palate very pleasant, good fruit/acidity balance. Nicer and ethereal with a good presence. Very pleasant surprise and deft touch by the winemaker. Would like to try his other cuvees..

Full of fruit and easy on the tannins. Has some nice mineral notes.

A ton of shitty 07 OR Pinots (Patricia Green Cellars, Newburg OR): nose: very fragrant and pretty nose of dark red fruits, plums, fresh picked berries and a touch of red florals
taste: medium/full bodied with medium+ acidity with very balanced tones of dark red fruits, plums, red florals and some dark red cherries
overall: an excellent pinot. Seems like it could use another two years or so, but with a real elegant and open nose right now
