...lately with the warm summer weather I've been drinking more pinots than zins. Last night we stopped at a wine tasting bar on the way to dinner. I had a 2010 Willamette Valley pinot - very nice, a little light and fruity. Excellent for sipping. I joked with my wife about mixing this one with a bottle of the 2007 Gloria Ferrar pinot I mentioned above (Parker 94) since there is very little fruit, to make a superb, more balanced pinot. I may try it. Then at dinner I had a glass of 2009 Testarosa pinot. Excellent balance of fruit, body, tannins and alcohol. Great with food. Any you've tried lately you can recommend? |

Got my shipment of Siduri in. Pleased so far. Not so much with Roessler. |
