I know a lot of great wines. But you wouldn't have heard of them. My job at a wine store means that I taste a lot of obscure wines. This blog is a record of my better finds in the $10 to $20 range. If you have any questions please drop me an email at stiebelben@gmail.com. I always love to talk wine.

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.
