Dear Feastlings,
While the people of California are assuredly prideful over the Pinot Noir grown there, I don’t think anyone would dispute the quality and beauty of Oregon terroir, and the quality and beauty with which it in turn imbues Pinot Noir. This Saturday, our tasting will be a bit pricier than usual ($17.50 rather than $10,) but with that price comes the opportunity to taste four Pinots that are, quite frankly, rather higher-end than what we normally offer on a Saturday. You’ll certainly want to make a reservation, as there are already only a few seats remaining, and you’ll certainly want to do it by phone- 326-9363- as web and email reservations won’t hold you a place at the tasting. Here’s what Kevin will have open:
2011 Evening Land Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hill
2012 Soter “North Star” Reserve Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley
2012 Raptor Ridge Pinot Noir, Chehalem Mountains
2013 Roco “The Stalker” Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley
