2007 Garys' Vineyard Pinot Noir
Appellation: Santa Lucia Highlands
Loring Wine Company
(Lompoc, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Garys' gate is rather unassuming. And you can't see the vineyard from the entrance. This made finding the vineyard REALLY difficult the first time I went there - in the early morning in heavy fog.

Light ruby in color with delicate, yet vibrant aromas and flavors of candied cherry, strawberry, cola and red licorice. The oak aromas are balanced with flavors of hazelnut, smoke and spice.

2007 Pinot Noir
Appellation: Central Coast
Oreana Winery and Tasting Room
(Santa Barbara, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Christian Garvin
Big, firmly structured and built to last, this Pinot starts off tight. But dark fruit flavors explode on the palate, delivering tons of plum and black cherries. The long, softly tannic finish suggests black raspberry aromas with nuances of tea and leather. This friend will be a friend for the long haul - buy it and hide it. Wine Spectator, 92 points. San Francisco Chronicle and Central Coast Wine Competition medal winner.

--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Ryan Leeman
Dark ruby color moving to garnet, the wine displays red cherry, spice, vanilla and caramel reminding me of a beautiful cherry flamb©. Ripe red fruit, vanilla, cedar, and toasted butterscotch give the wine a long finish. Fine tannins carry the finish currently and should mellow with time. Eighteen months in French barrels has created a sense of integration and harmony in the wine, which, while drinking nicely now, will continue to evolve for five to ten years. ...

This 2005 Pinot Noir is very food friendly and has an abundance of flavors. Hints of toast, vanilla and raspberry fruit are elevated by balanced acidity, spice and a rich earthy finish. A versatile wine at the dinner table, our Pinot Noir compliments a wide variety of foods. Wild salmon, roasted turkey, marinated pork or rack of lamb will not intimidate this wine.
