2004 Chehalem Pinot Noir Ridgecrest VineyardsRibbon Ridge more |
10/5/2008 - rkorchid wrote: 90 pointsNot decanted but poured about 30 minutes in advance. Dark garnet with no bricking. Pleasant but very light nose. Medium bodied with a mouth filling rich taste of dark fruit. Very focused and elegant, not a fruit bomb. Long, rich aftertaste that ends a little thin. Very elegant and just delicious. |

2002 Penner-Ash Pinot Noir Willamette Valleymore |
8/23/2008 - rkorchid wrote: 92 pointsNot decanted. Very dark. Big nose. Initial taste was very full bodied and overly sweet fruit. But some time in the glass and drunk with a rich roasted duck dish revealed a wonderfully impressive wine. Just delicious. |
