New oregon producer in the market. last years reserve was in the wine spectator top 100.
Pinot Gris 2006 a touch sweet, a little acidity...just dont have room for another oregon pinot gris right now.
WHole Cluster Pinot Noir 2007 done in carbonic maceration i was expecting a bit more green flavors and it was actually light and fruity. the other surprise was the 2007 in oregon is supposed to be a challenge so this was really good.
Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2006 a great vintage for oregon... this wine had mushroom on the nose, some heat on the tongue but good fruit to keep it going.
Pinot Noir Reserve 2006 earthy nose, nice cherry fruit at the end..it just seemed to be missing something in the middle.
Pinot Noir Port 2004.. i think this was a first for me to try a port made with pinot. they make the brandy out of pinot grapes and produce the port with it. made with a solera system so there is a little of last vintages in the blend, to keep the young port in line I was told. not hot like regular ports tend to be, cocoa and plum flavors on the back...very interesting.
