Weekly Twitter Wine Mini-Reviews Round-up for 2009-03-21

• 07 Willakenzie Estate Pinot Noir (Willamette Valley): Tough vintage & it shows. Classic OR is there, but is subdued by oak. Needs time. #
• 06 Gainey Vineyards Pinot Noir (Santa Rita Hills): Like a smoked wood basket full of just about every red berry in the brier patch. #
• 06 Sonoma Coast Peterson Vineyard Pinot Noir: Elegant & complex. Smoke, dark cherry, earth, etc. Worth the $ & already drinking beautifully. #
• 07 Martin Codax Albarino (Rias Baixas): With all that awesome dried banana, you’ll think you’re drinking Trader Joe’s tropical trail mix. #
• 05 Concha y Toro Marques de Casa Concha Cab Sauv (Puente Alto): Smoke, prune, fig & nice silky finish. Not sure it’s one for the cellar tho. #
