  • 2008 Kelley Fox Wines Pinot Noir Momtazi Vineyard - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, McMinnville (6/5/2020)
    Darker ruby color. Nose of steely rose petals, violets, plum, camphor, earth, sharp cherry. Beautifully transparent layers of spiky earth, dark luminescent berry, deep velvety brambles, and cinnamon on the palate. Refreshing acidity and firm tannin leading to a longer finish of black cherry, dark plum, fine-grained dirt, and brier. This is so excellent. (93 pts.)

Doug, thanks for posting this great note on one of my favorite pinot producers anywhere. Also, I just noticed your last note on this wine was back in 2011, you were way ahead of the curve on this producer my friend!

Dale,

Thanks! I’ve sampled this twice in the last few months, it’s so delicious. One more bottle, which I must keep my hands off for at least a few years. As you have noted, a wonderful producer. I wish I had more of her wines in the cellar.

Cheers,
Doug
