  A 2008 that is out of the tunnel. Showed some budding complexity, while still being very fruit forward (not extracted, just a lot of sweet lush dark berries). Good structure. Went perfectly well with some pork confit and potato stomp and mild apple/habanero chutney and steamed string beans in olive oil and seasalt. Great wine to accompany the christmas spread.

  The wine looks Ruby colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Blueberry, Light toast, and Nutmeg. The body is Medium. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Long.
  
  Ate with Pasta. Very nice. Just starting to get into its prime

  Harvest moon over Willamette Valley; 9/20/2009-9/25/2009 (Willamette Valley, various wineries): 90-92. We did a lot of barrel sampling this day but just have to give a head's up on this one. such fruit! a bold style pinot but with great structural promises, and this is so far from being ready to go. Expect great things. Same can be said for much of the other 08's we got to preview, and personally I thought some of the other barrels were even more enticing and fresh, but it is hard to judge before assemblage. At least this one is a single vineyard designate.
