Tasting notes
The 2007 Pinot Noir Savoia Vineyard focuses on the red fruit side of the spectrum. Medium ruby-colored, it offers up an alluring perfume of sandalwood, spice box, floral notes, cherry, and cranberry. Silky and elegant on the palate, it has excellent concentration and length. Relatively forward, this tasty effort can be enjoyed over the next 8 years. Ken Wright describes 2007 as -?a really difficult year. It challenged me to be really good at farming and to be patient?Luckily it was cool and the fruit remained intact.- All things considered, it appears that Wright performed optimally in this challenging vintage with what nature provided.

Bright red. Expressive aromas of red berries, cherry and oak spice. Medium-bodied and tightly focused, with good energy and clarity to the red fruit flavors. Finishes with very good mineral snap and a strong echo of red berries. I'd drink this now for its lively fruit.
