It's hard for me to imagine it remaining riveting for any less than another dozen years." Veteran vigneron Robert Brittan had over 30 vintages under his belt when he decided to move from Napa Valley to Willamette Valley in 2004 to make Pinot Noir...sure to send bolts of rapture through lovers of great Burgundy. - Wine Advocate
Dusky Goose Dundee Hills 2009 $65
Our most popular Reserve Pinot
Rich, robust, and gorgeous right now. The aromas are powerful and ripe, billowing with dark cherries, kirsch, and cocoa powder. The supple, weighty flavors of amarena cherries and blackberries pick up cinnamon, dried thyme, and a splash of cream before the persistent, sweet fruit sails on the finish. - Avalon Wine
Raptor Ridge Reserve 2009
$36
93 Points Wine Spectator
Supple, refined and distinctive for the purity and clarity of its dark berry, cherry and guava flavors, lingering easily on the light, expressive finish. Drink now through 2019. - Wine Spectator
Evening Land
Seven Springs Vineyard 2010
$46
#79 in Wine Spectator Top 100
Light and silky, this is beguiling for the way it deftly plays its polished red berry and black cherry fruit against glints of mineral and white pepper. The finish brings it all together seamlessly. Drink now through 2018. - Wine Spectator
Soter Vineyards
Mineral Springs 2010
$50
93 Points Wine Advocate
Rose petal and geranium fascinatingly mingle with scents of cherry and almond in the nose of Soter's 2010 Pinot Noir Mineral Springs Ranch; then inform a silken-textured, infectiously-juicy palate, rich in ripe cherry and piquant nut oils yet buoyant and positively billowing in its expression of inner-mouth florality, leading to a long, mouthwateringly savory, disarmingly persistent and next sip-inducing finish in which floral and spice accents alluringly keep pace with the generous flow of fruit. - Wine Advocate
Bergstrom
Bergstrom Vineyard 2010
$80
94 Points Tanzer
93 Points Wine Spectator
Fresh and open-textured, with lovely transparency characterizing the plum and currant fruit, layering in hints of mineral, floral and spice notes as the finish dances on. Drink now through 2020. - Wine Spectator
