| I have had previous vintages of this and enjoyed it very much. And I recall that it was a screaming bargain. What is current price for the various witness Tree wines? | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| | There's an "Estate" bottling that's in the $20 range. I think it's a solid value. This may be what JimmyV is thinking of. | | | |

| 2005 Witness Tree Vineyard Pinot Noir Vintage Select - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Eola - Amity Hills (8/30/2008)
WIML90,PURPLE92
Tasted August 30, 2008.
Opened and served immediately. Dark garnet color in the glass, slightly dusty looking. Nose of saddle soap, black berries and raspberries. Also a bit of dustiness. Flavors of berries and raspberries. Medium to tart acidity, medium tannins, medium body. Kind of in an awkward stage right now so I'm not sure whether to recommend holding longer or not. (90 pts.) | | | Joe-----Wine is like potato chips around me...if it's open, it's gone. | |
