Garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of rubber tire, birch, black cherries and wet stones. Slightly reminiscent of a Volnay. Flavors of tart red berries, strawberries and Bing cherries laced over a medium, earthy finish. Medium to tart acidity, resolved tannins, medium to full bodied. Drink over the short term. Ready to go if not slightly past for this challenging vintage.

E&R's Pinot Noir-egon Weekend; 4/24/2010-4/25/2010 (Portland, OR): Smells only slightly green, with light berries and a lighter fire pit, similar to the Willamette Valley. Tannic on the palate with nice structure, good fruit balance, and the fire pit again. Tannic, showing nice red fruits lingering into the finish. Nice balance.
