Wine Spectator Reviews:
Pinot Noir Eola-Amity Hills, Zena Crown Vineyard 2006
|
Balances a rich mouthful of ripe currant, plum and floral-spice flavor on a lithe, graceful frame, letting the flavors swirl as they sail through the long, expressive finish. Drink now through 2016. 50 cases made. –HS |
Score: 92Release Price: $75 Country: Oregon Issue: Web Only - 2009 |
|
This is lovely, tempting the nose with violet-tinged currant and blackberry fruit, washing easily over the tongue with a graceful balance of fruit and spice, lingering effectively as the flavors hover. Drink now through 2014. 826 cases made. –HS |
Score: 91Release Price: $48 Country: Oregon Issue: Apr 30, 2009 |
Pinot Noir Eola-Amity Hills, Roserock Vineyard 2006
|
Strongly floral, with violet and rose petal overtones to the chewy currant and blackberry fruit, balancing each other right through the long, sturdy finish. Best from 2011 through 2016. 85 cases made. –HS |
Score: 90Release Price: $75 Country: Oregon Issue: Web Only - 2009 |

So it seems that it didn't take long to get the first good word out about the new wine. The Fall and Holiday edition of The Bounty Hunter Rare Wine & Provisions Catalog was released last week, and wouldn't you know it, Expression 44˚Willakia Vineyard is featured on the Pinot Noir page. This catalogue is actually one of my favorites, it is fairly comprehensive, and always has great finds. And, if you get up to Napa, deffinetely check out their amazing food, wine and beer selection at The Bounty Hunter Restaurant and Bar on First St. in Down Town... you won't be disapointed!
