Dominio IV "Pondering Ptolemy" Pinot noir 08

Juicy sweet cherry, round and creamy - fresh fruit balanced by classic Pinot noir tannins - silky and approachable but well made for cellaring. Love this wine. - Jean

One of the best values among the highest rated wines in Wine Advocate's 2011 annual review of Oregon wines.

The 2008 Pinot Noir Pondering Ptolemy exhibits a similar aromatic and flavor profile to The Black and the Red cuvee along with a bit more complexity, structure, and length. This pleasure-bent Pinot will deliver sighs of satisfaction through 2021, perhaps longer. - Jay Miller - 93 points

This wine is from one of Oregon’s oldest planted clones; Pommard. The French Pommard is an intense, complicated, rustic vine that ripens later and produces earth and berries in a magical combination. With a deep color, earthy perfume, and structured acidity, this Pinot is lively now and built for a journey. - the winery
