Jenise or any contributor...

Has anyone tried the 2006 St. Innocent Anden Pinot Noir yet? It is available at a wine shop in Raleigh and sounds inviting (92 pts. from RP but I'd rather hear Jenise's opinion)

JC: no notes but I loved it. A definite buy.

I have had it too - delish!

Grab it. It is the last St.Innocent Anden.

Talk about a coincidence. Not 15 minutes after I posted that last post I received an email about this wine. The Justice Vineyard is about two miles from where I sit - as the crow flies, over the hill.

When you had this, did you decant it? Every 06 Oregon PN (and a couple of CA too) at various price points I've had have been disjointed at first, with some not coming together until the second day.

Thanks for the replies!

If anyone is interested, here's the story on that.

Thanks for the link. I wonder if the Occidental Vineyard mentioned is the same one that produced grapes for Eric Ross Old Vine Zinfandel in years past. (When I visited the Eric Ross tasting room in Glen Ellen in 2007, I learned that he no longer had access to grapes from Occidental Vineyard.)
