Shout out to the little wine shop that although is a little more expensive, the selection is much better.

i tried that cenit once (forget which vintange) and couldn't figure out why i shelled out $35 or $40 bucks for it when it drank like an okay $18 spanish wine

Not yet. Probably tonight.

The wife and I were actually headed to a party at a bar so we were going to stop and get a gift. I was curious to see if they had it and sure enough they did. I didn't feel like popping open the bottle after a couple of drinks at the bar.

Nice ones. Alto moncayos grenache is cool.


What do you guys think of Oregon pinot noir in general, relative to californian. Personal preference works just fine in this case.

 

[Omega Male]

I like them and the best bottles are a better value than CA. Lot of French influence up there, which shows in the style.

That plus the latitude inclines the wines towards Old World style.

What do you know...

Here I've been ordering quite a bunch of CA pinot noir. Good to know in the future. Thanks.
