Review:

Aromas of rose petals, violets and spice. Flavors include cherry and the texture is well balanced. Lots of refined, silky tannins help to create a long finish. This wine will cellar well but is delicious to drink now.

2009 Vintage Tasting Notes

2009 Tanzer - 90 points - Bright red. High-pitched red berry and spice aromas are complicated by notes of candied rose, herbs and white pepper. Suave, silky and precise, offering sweet strawberry and raspberry flavors and a deeper note of bitter cherry. Nicely balanced and pure, with very good finishing clarity and length. There's something almost Chambolle-like here."

This is the 22nd release of the Willamette Valley Pinot noir. 95% of the grapes are from the family's estate in the Dundee Hills. This wine displays elegance, balance and finesse and will be a mainstay of many wine cellars.

2007 Vintage Tasting Notes

Domaine Drouhin's Pinot noir is always an age-worthy selection from one of Oregon's mainstay producers. Blackberries with raspberry accents mix with powerful floral and spice aromas. The 2007 vintage is softly fruity and ready to drink.
