Archery Summit Pinot Noir from Oregon

Archery Summit 2001 Premier Cuvee Pinot Noir $38
Willamette Valley, Oregon

Winemaker's Notes
Flavors of ripe black fruits, flowers, cassis and oak all show a depth, elegance, and length that mark a classic Oregon Pinot Noir. Aromas and flavors of blackberries, blueberries, red currants, cinnamon, coffee and smoke emerge and deepen as they open up to include the smell of violets and carnations. All of the components, tannin, acid and fruit are very well balanced and combine to produce a concentrated, rich mid-palate, and long finish. This wine will improve and age gracefully for the next ten years.

Past Recommendations, Picks, and Wines of the Week

Notes on our Wines of the Week, Recommendations, and Picks:

When you read our thoughts, please remember that you may think differently. A particular wine may be your favorite and not on our list. Well, don't stop buying it because of that. In fact, you may want to email us and let us know about it. These are our opinions but our FIRST recommendation is to go by your own palate.

A couple of other thoughts . . . first, prices are approximate. They'll vary. Second, different vintages mean different grapes and different tastes so our recommendation for a 2000 Merlot may not hold for 2001.

And lastly, we remind you to drink responsibly! Now, all that said, here is a summary of links to our suggestions. Find one (or more) and pop the cork!

Wine consumption can have positive physical benefits or cause possible physical harm . . . the medical community is divided in some areas. If you have any doubt, check with your doctor before consuming wine or any other alcoholic drink.

Our information is well researched. Recommendations are based on our opinions at the time of publication. At the same time, recommendations change. Also, there may be significant variance in taste depending on storage, shipping, and other factors.
