Drank this after a $54 wine (Radio Coteau 2007 Terra Neuma Pinot), and I would say it held up. The tous ensemble is a great wine for the price, one of the best. The 2007 has great terroir one expects of Copain. This vintage's fruit seemed a little heavier and the fruit not as bright as past vintages. There is some herb I don't recall from past vintages but the finish lingers for nearly thirty seconds. Very little tar to tobacco taste or feel.

- It's balanced with a medium body. Polished texture with a long finish - What a steal as fat as quality for price!! Great earth and tannins against lean but well structured fruit. Classic Copain, makes me want the single vineyard designate wines. The finish is long but the fruit is a bit red.

Another good bottle. Cool climate pinot with lots of sour cherries on the palate. Loving it with some stilton blue and crackers.

Light, fresh, cherry and spice. Just the right amount of complexity.
