Van Ruiten Steamboat Vineyard Pinnot Noir 2007

I was really impressed with this Pinot, dark ruby moving to garnet excellent oak work showing caramel, vanilla and butterscotch, the fruit was in there as berries compote, great sweet nose, but complex, sweet and well educated tannins and a long finish.
This wine should evolve for 5 to 7 years. So its time to drink it. 950 cases produced.
Great value, price around $19.
Perfect pairing for this wine is a duck breast, pork shoulder, oven roasted turkey with apple sauce.
