2009 A to Z Pinot Noir Oregon


WBC 12 comes to the Oregon wine country this year so along with my normal reviews expect more varietals from this region. Tonight's tasting is an aromatic Pinot Noir from Dundee Oregon which I purchased just last week.

Pleasing to the nose and a reason why I love this varietal. Wild cherry explodes from the glass. Currants surrounded by ripe strawberry followed by a splash of red raspberry. Perfect balance of fruit and spice.

Juicy cherry from start of the taste. Fresh strawberries followed by a nice touch of spice. The fruit lasts long into the finish. When the wine warms, hints of cranberry appear along with the strawberry and wild cherry. Amazing Pinot Noir and one I highly recommend. To learn more about the staff and varietals produced click the link A to Z Wineworks. You're going to love their wine.

Cheers
Dan
