  • 2007 Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir Louise - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley (1/17/2013)
    Amazing.

    Opened about a half hour before serving, did not decant. Singing. Vanilla, red berry fruit, and floral nose. Tangy palate with more red berry fruit, black pepper, hints of nutmeg, and earthy minerality. Crisp acidity. Harmonious. Very long smooth finish. Outstanding wine.

How did you source this? The Louise is tough to come by.

I'm still hanging on to my last bottle of 1993 DD Laurene, and based on my last taste, there's no rush to open it. OR Pinots ae VERY well.

I'm a DDO member. They only shipped 2 of these to me in the '07 vintage.

Thanks for the note. I haven't touch any of my 07 Louise yet. Should probably give one a try. Need a good party in that I also have a 3L bottle to share at some point. May be a few years down the road on that one.
