When tasted next to the '05 Mt. Jefferson, the first impression this Pinot leaves that there is a remarkable difference that 1 year of aging in the bottle will bring to this wine. Fully integrated, with all of the intangibles that make a hallmark Pinot: ripe black cherry up front, hints of volcanic soil, a fresh acidity and a silky smooth body, and a finish of stewed strawberries. Best around 2010.
