2014 Biggio Hamina Cellars Pinot Noir Willamette Valley

Wonderful blend of old and new world Pinot styles. Fragrance of cherry blossoms and leather. New World flavor of candied cherries is distinct to begin with. Layers of mineral and leather balance out the finish and prevent the wine from descending into that big fruit flavor found in Cali pinots. Just enough tannin to cut the sweetness. Neither Cali "big" nor Burgundy "lean". Love it or hate it. I go for the former.

Incredibly,well balanced. Starts fruity but goes to dry, with good acidity but not the kind of high acid you can find in many dry rieslings.

2015 Domaine La Garrigue Côtes du Rhône Cuvée Romaine

Rich red fruit balanced out by strong tannins. Smoky, earthy finish. Big balanced flavors that seem to combine the best of Old and New World winemaking techniques. 14.1% alcohol.
