A nice drink of wine and a nice addition to dinner. 2008 was a great year for Oregon pinot, so I wasn't sure if I should have sat on it longer or drank it sooner. To be honest I still don't know. It started off as a delicious surprise, but then ended tasting more like a typical California pinot. It was still good, but I just wish it would have finished as good as it began. If you have the opportunity to try it, pour it through a screen as it's unfiltered.

Had a couple of 375ml bottles. It was pleasant and silky. A bit tight upon open, but after half hour it became a gem. Each bottle had some crystal sediments, which I see as a sign of wine made by traditional methods...

At first this was disjointed, but opened up over time to smooth plum, earth, and black fruit notes. The wife enjoyed this more than I did. Drink now.

possible flawed bottle, but I suspect this one has just passed its window and has gone flat.

Massive pencil box nose, particularly on opening. Big bright fruit. Lovely.
