2011 Foris Pinot Gris

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This Pinot Gris is silvery with a touch of yellow.  The nose is fresh pears and stone fruit.  The palate show a lovely sweet fruit with balanced acid middle and soft finish.  This should be a lovely wine for the hot summer days and light fare.

2010 Foris fly-over white

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This wine blend is mostly Pinot Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris with a straw color and a nose of  melons and citrus.  We served it quite chilled which produced a light refreshing wine with melons, acids, and minerality on the palate.  A nice summer sip you should try.

2003 Newell Vineyards Pour Deux Cabernet Sauvignon

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This Cabernet is from Monterey County and still a quite dark deep red after 10 years.  The nose is black sloe with hints of black pepper, candied apple and esters.  The palate shows a full bodied red with sweet round fruit and very firm tannin that is long and lovely.  This could go even more years but let’s drink it now.

2010 Treos Estate Pinot Noir Founders Choice

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This is a visually beautiful Pinot with a darker ruby color.  The nose is loamy, raspberry, a touch of barn yard and white pepper.  The palate is of a very sweet fruit with a nice layered middle of acid and tannins.  This middle leads to a flowing finish.  Drink this now.

2009 Folin Cellars Tempranillo

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This Tempranillo from the Rogue Valley is a deep and dark red.  The nose shows a big dark fruit, plums, olives and smoke with a touch of vanilla for the oak.  The fruit is delicious sweet and full bodied when held on the palate.  The wine moves into a nice middle and supple tannic finish that is lingering and enjoyable.  This four year old could do well with another year in the bottle but is very drinkable now.

2008 Pebblestone Cellars Mélange

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This is one of my favorite red Bordeaux blends from the Southern Oregon.  The folks at Pebblestone change the blend each year.  They produce a wonderfully full bodied balanced offering.  The 2008 is a dark ruby red with a nose of black fruit, floral notes, old wood and a touch of tar.  The palate shows a well-defined fruit dry and delicious with a complex middle and layered tannic finish that is lasting.  This is one of the best Mélange ever.  If you like French Bordeaux you’ll love this wine.

2011 Merrill Cellars Syrah Reserve

> Lookup on Cellar Tracker

This is a dark ruby Syrah from Merrill this year.  The nose is a dark fruit, rough cut English tea, clove, caramel, floral and tobacco.  The mouth feel is very full with a good fruit and caramel in a layered profile.  The finish is tannic and long with white pepper and slightly bitter.  This wine has a great yum factor with complexity and legs that should cellar well for the next 5 years. Let this wine breath for a bit to get 92 points now what will be in 2018?
