Great video! I completely agree on the 17-25 dollar range for good Oregon Pinot. A couple of my favorites would be Iris Vineyards and Willamette Valley Vineyards. Good wines for their price points! I like earthy and leather notes in my wine also so I may have to seek out that Burgundy and give it a try. Cheers 🍷

@drmatthewhorkey Год назад

Wow I haven't tasting the wines from those two producers... I will check them out. That Burgundy was recommended by a shop owner that never fails me.. and man it was GOOOODDD

@tberreth33 Год назад

Typically Oregon Pinot’s in that $17-25 range are the table wines - OK but just barely that. One of the issues here is that GOOD Pinot’s cost $$$ unfortunately. I haven’t found many good, low priced Pinots and trust me, I’ve tried a lot :). Willamette Valley is OK. Haven’t tried Iris. Have tried many, many from Dundee and Carlton and they are noticeably better - the soil up in the hills is more volcanic than in Salem (Willamette Valley). Erath USED to be decent and low priced, but not the last few years… All in my opinion of course! Drink what you like :)

Just found your channel today!!! So excited to hear your comparisons, but also am curious about vintages and AVAs!!! I love vertical tastings as well as lateral comparisons, because I believe most producers in the Willamette are releasing thier wines too early, and ageablity is important. How would a 7 year old Ribbon Ridge PN hold up against a 4 year old Buegundy? So many fun questions and exciting adventures to be had with that!!!

Thank you for a very interesting tasting. The Hamilton Russell wine from South Africa retails in the UK at about £35 or less than $40 including tax. There are some other great pinot produced in a small area close to the sea. I am not sure if you can get Bouchard Finlayson wines in the US but it is well worth trying their Pinot along with Newton Johnson Estate.

@kentrobinson4605 Год назад

Really enjoyed your selection and comparison of mid-range Oregon pinots; these are really strong wines, but at reasonable prices which many can afford. Willamette Valley Vineyards whole cluster Pinot Noir will add some tannin and funk notes. More expensive and aged Oregon Pinots will have the leather and funk notes. Many more producers, and a range of soil and clonal variation, all point to the need for another flight blind tasting. Several Southern Oregon Rogue Valley producers do tempranillos in the Reserva style which exhibit the leather aromas. So for reference (and other Oregonians offer up some better phonetics): Wil-laamm -ette, Eeeola-Amity, and Chehalem (sch-eh -- hay-- lem).

Solid Oregon lineup. I visited Cristom and Stoller. Only as tasting appointments. I didn't get to do interviews there. The mountain view at Cristom was killer. Hamilton Russel's SA wines are really nice. I haven't had the Oregon project yet. Not familiar with the Pommard producer, but I'm sure it's great. My preference, in order - Taz, Sancerre, Oregon, Burgundy, NZ/Rest of OZ, then the rest. Cali is normally not in my top picks except for cool climate. Stereotypical Cali is too fruity for me. Even though Burgundy isn't the top for me, I definitely won't turn it down and I'll buy it too. It's just not the first one I reach for for the money. 1er/Grand Cru or really great Village is a different story.

Or their Ruby Ruby Rosé, or their wite wine, Hallberg Ranch Blanc. I buy a mixed case or two each year from them, but rarely have seen expert reviews of them.

Cristom, from the Eola-Amity AVA is also one of the older Wineries. Eola Amity, (where Brooks is also, has an Incredible diversity of soil types, and is actually a mini-mountain range with dozens of soil types and microclimes.
