2007 “The Shop” Carneros Pinot Noir Price: $33.00 Qty.   This wine has been the hit of the lineup from the first vintage. Either people like the story or I am doing something right with the wine. Hopefully both. I have always viewed it as the best example among my offerings of the kind of wine I like to drink—reasonably priced, sophisticated, maybe a little serious but mostly just yummy. 2007 was a year of low yields and high concentration. The 2007 Shop reminds me a little of the 2005, although a bit tighter at this stage in its development. Deeply colored and focused, a bit backward in the aromas. I think it will probably become, over the course of the next few months, quite forward, savory and fruity in equal measure. I also think it will age well, as the 2005 seems to be doing. It can use some air upon opening, so either decant or slosh it around a bit in your glass before imbibing. 2007 yielded 500 cases.   WINES    ~ Current Releases    ~ Library Wines    ~ My Basket    ~ States We Ship To    ~ Read Before Ordering    ~ Shipping Rates & States ALL RELEASES    ~ 2008 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay    ~ 2008 "The Habitat" Pinot Noir    ~ 2008 "1313" Oregon Pinot Noir    ~ 2007 “The Shop” Pinot Noir    ~ 2007 Manchester Ridge Pinot Noir    ~ 2006 Dry Stack Vineyard Syrah    ~ 2006 Hudson Vineyard Syrah
