Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Rich ripe fruit. Med acidity, another Willamette winner from the 12 vintage #oregonpinotnoir

Have yet to taste a 12 from WV that I haven't dug. Grapey in youth but perfectly integrated acid. Perfect vintage. The carpet cleaner is equally as awesome when I spill it from over excitement

Sitting in a nice pretty place right now.

Plenty of aeration reveals a deft balance of density and silkiness.

The vintage some from the major wine media irresponsibly panned before the grapes were even picked. This seven year old is ready for those who appreciate supple, elegant, nuanced subtleties and complexity. Drink now thru another 10 years.

Damn, that's a good lookin roast beef sandwich. The wine was great as well.

Fantastic with pork loin & apples!!!

A little reduced, a little funky- in a good way...

Loving this. Classic OR Pinot with power and yet restraint. A touch bretty for some reason.

2009s drinking fine
