winemaker's notes:

The 2006 A to Z Oregon Pinot Noir is blended from wines made from at least sixteen different vineyards representing all of the Oregon AVAs that grow Pinot Noir. A to Z takes great care over many months in crafting one cuvee each vintage, a complex blend that embodies the essence of Oregon Pinot Noir.

Clear and vibrant, the initial aromas of this wine are of raspberries, blueberries, baking spices and Bing cherries but evolve to the more complex aromas of clean earth, minerals, smoke, red currants and flint. The mouth fulfills the expectations promised by the aromatics and has a rich texture, good acidity and a strong structure. The 2006 A to Z Pinot Noir shows great poise, concentrated depth and purity within a lacy framework. Rich, classically proportioned and built for mid-term aging.

  Good pinot for a great price. - 11/28/2008
I would buy this wine again
I only gave this 3 stars as I've had a lot better pinot, but for under $20, this is a great value. It went great with our Thanksgiving Turkey and blended pretty well on the palate considering all the other varieties of wine people brought over.

  Good, decent wine - easy to beat - 7/17/2008
I would not buy this wine again
As usual, this A to Z Pinot Noir offers a decent bottle of wine for the money. If you are looking for a great, inexpensive Pinot that will wow your friends and make you question weather or not you really only spent $20 on it, I would look elsewhere. There are at least 6-10 others out there in this price range that beat the A to Z in terms of value.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
