Cooper Hill Pinot Noir 2010 (about $14)






About the Wine:  Oregon is basically the hot spot for Pinot Noir right now.  Producers there have developed a reputation for rich, full bodied Pinot Noirs that drink almost like Cabs.

About THIS Wine:  In the glass it very light, almost pink, with a pink rim.  Smoke dominates the nose though cherry is also present.  The palate is very light with dry cherry and raspberry and a mild finish.

Drinking This Wine:  This would go very well with turkey.  It might make a good sipping wine if you can past the taste.

Overall Impression:  This is a very unimpressive wine.  At ten dollars a bottle it would be fair.  At fourteen it is overpriced.
