Winemaker Notes
Cherry and raspberry with that distinctive spice of Pinot and subtle undertones of oak derived
vanilla. Supple and smooth with lashings of sweet fruit, finely polished tannins and balanced
acidity that provides a finely poised backbone for the vibrant fruit flavors and varietal spice
notes that provide a great length and focus.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2008 Omrah Pinot Noir which spent 10 months in 20% new French oak. Medium ruby-colored, it delivers an attractive perfume of smoke, cinnamon, cherry, and cranberry. On the palate it is velvety-textured while exhibiting good varietal character. It is a superb value in Pinot Noir.

Wine Enthusiast
This well-priced Pinot is a crowd-pleaser, with classic Pinot Noir aromas of cherry pie filling and strawberries that carry over to the palate. There they join finely buffed tannins and firm acidity to create a very impressive package. The medium finish is marked by raspberry and cherry flavors. Drink now or hold a year or two.
