"A to Z has kept a lid on its pricing, and offers one of the best values in Oregon Pinot Noir." -Wine Enthusiast

Tasting Notes:

Super sexy and spicy on the nose with aromas of apricots, blueberries, Bing cherries, blood oranges, gingerbread, white pepper, sweet Eastern spices, violets, tea and sweet pipe tobacco. In the mouth, the wine has refreshing acidity with silky tannins and rich flavors mirroring the aromatics. The 2009 A to Z Oregon Pinot Noir restrains power while balancing richness and purity with a clean and refreshing finish. Classically proportioned and built for midterm aging, the wine will continue to build weight and structure with cellaring.

90 Points & "Smart Buy" - Wine Spectator Magazine:
"Light and lively, a bit tight but graceful, glowing with boysenberry and plum fruit that’s shaded with cedar and cream notes. The finish doesn’t quit. Drink now through 2014."—H.S. (Oct 15, 2011)

90 Points, Rank #75 Top 100 Wines of 2010 - Wine Spectator Magazine (2008 vintage):
"Lively, deftly balanced and refreshing in style, with pretty raspberry and cherry flavors playing against hints of spice and chalk. Finishes with impressive length. Drink now through 2016." –HS (12/15/2010)
