Well, impressions is about all I can offer. I'm having a hard time pinning down what I'm tasting here.
Aroma was a bit barnyardy, which I thought might be a good sign. Like the TH it was big and fruity, but with some heat. No earthiness at all, but the tannins weren't too bad, even with time. However, it got a bit sweeter as time went on - even more so on the second night. Drinkable, but not what I like for Pinot Noir
I don't have enough experience with Pinot, esp Oregon Pinot to know if it's this particular wine, the vintage or a combination. I do know that an earlier Shea (01 IIRC) was quite tasty and the Seven Springs I've had have all been wonderful. Also, the 05 TH I got in the spring club shipment was very nice.
