Wednesday Wine Committee “Founder’s Day”, honoring those who started this tradition back in the ‘70s. What an incredible group and tradition they started!

I was between burgundy or Oregon Pinot. Very little acidic bite. Seemed extracted at first but burst out of the glass with potpourri and violet noted after some time. Some sandalwood, Bing cherry, currant and underripe blackberries. Surprised it was This young.
