A Ten Year Tasting: Wines of 2008 (Primarily Oregon Pinot Noir & Ringers) - Graciously hosted by Grinner:
Flight Two of Five - Wine 3:
Appealing purity of fruit, texturally interesting. The wine shows a hard fruit candy element at the back, along with prunes and molasses. Leaning toward Syrah, and yet balanced and interesting, not to mention, delicious.

Beautiful cherry, baking spice, and some plum on the nose. Smooth and just a touch sweet, but with great balance. Medium to long finish. This wine is a winner.

The last bottle I drank must have been shut down or off because this doesn't seem like the same wine. This wine has focused fruit and a beautiful slightly spicy aspect. Subtle minerality seems to be underneath the other flavors. This bottle lives up to what I have come to expect from this winery!

This is a really fantastic wine. Great aromatics, balance, and fruit with a long finish.
