Drinking like a French Pinot, the bouquet is evocative of cherries, strawberries, tea, forest floor, and crushed crushed flower, while the pallet shines with black cherry, tea, hints of cinnamon and allspice, and earth. A consummate exemplar of Willamette Valley. Get 1 of the 200 cases while you can. — 9 years ago

Had to get it again to share. So good for how inexpensive it is — 7 years ago
I'm not a Pinot Noir lover, probably because they cost too much for a good one, but received this as a gift and really liked it. — 8 years ago
Here is what Wine Spectator says about this wine. One of the more endowed 2009s, this is packed with dark smoldering cocoa, mesquite, tobacco and roasted fig notes, all inlaid with pure cassis and plum preserves fruit flavors. Long and authoritative on the finish, with singed vanilla bean and tar notes adding length and dimension. Not sure I could have come up with all of these descriptors but a beautiful wine in my opinion. — 9 years ago
Sweet and refreshing. A little syrupy. Nice peach notes. — 9 years ago
Red fruit. Cherry. — 9 years ago
More fruity than I was expecting, but still enjoyable and one I'll buy again. — 10 years ago
A mouthfull of yellow grapefruit with lovely acidity, minerality and a citrus peel finish. Fantastic! Year in year out this wine is a classic — 10 years ago
For the money there is no better pinot. Radp cherry cran. Light oak. High acid. Easy to drink. — 10 years ago
I'm enjoying this wine.. It's definitely mature! Maybe notes of fig and pear... Definitely honey and grapefruit. — 11 years ago

WNH Southern gathering hosted by @Mike R and old Heitz vertical (70,74,85) sourced by @Martin G Rivard (from Benchmark) who also contributed some on his own dime. This ‘70 started with a wet cardboard musty nose and a slightly hollow mid palate and astringent finish. As the evening evolved and the steak showed up the wine did a complete 180. More tannins than fruit but it was a structured beauty that may not be at it’s peak but is still a gorgeous wine. Ripe plum, stewed fig, bayleaf. I didn’t get any eucalyptus from this but there’s a strong earthy, old world with a CA spin vibe. After dinner and before the fire pit some of us finished the decanter of this and were impressed at how it was still ascending hours after being opened. — 8 years ago

Just enjoyed a glass of one of the last bottles known to exist...This wine has been sold out for months but it was being poured at a Grenache Day celebration tonight...It will long be remembered as one of my favorite roses...Farewell my friend...The remaining few bottles will be poured at the girl & the fig restaurant this weekend until every last drop is consumed...Come get a final splash before its all gone... — 10 years ago
Very tasty. — 10 years ago
1976 was almost fluorescent orange on release so many years ago now. Today it still has that telltale orange gleam but it's developed so beautifully. Orange peal, fig, honey, earth, mango, hazelnut, and on and on. 375ml still very fresh. Impressive. — 10 years ago
Anniversary memory wine!! — 11 years ago
Very nice Mataro - still quite young though, and would drink much better with a few more years in the bottle — 11 years ago
