2008 Acrobat Pinot Grigio light yellow in color, bright fruit, a little rhubarb green and quickish finish.

2008 King Estate Signature Pinot Gris, lighter color than the acrobat but a lot more flavor, soft fruit, good acidity.

King Estate Domaine Pinot Gris 2007...showing typical for the vintage... light and not memorable

King Estate Pinot Noir Signature 2008... fruit on the nose, a little earth and perfume, nice weight, not overly tannic... a bit young.

NxNW Cabernet Sauvignon COlumbia Valley 2007 a little green on the nose, but fruit came through.. med finish.. not too bad

King Estate Domaine Vin de Glace Pinot Gris 2006.. interesting nose of honey and stewed tomatoes... sweet but not cloyingly so.. honey notes in the middle.. not as heavy as most dessert wine can be...

Jordan Russian River Chardonnay 2007... backed a lot off the oak., some toasty notes on the nose but clean and fresh on the palate with just a little of the caramel from the oak on the finish...
