Ruby-red. Black raspberry and cherry on the pungent, spice-accented nose and in the mouth. Lush and seamless pinot with excellent clarity and finishing cling. Shows impressive vivacity for the vintage and drinks very well right now.

Score 91/100 · Drink 2011-2019, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Oct 2011

The 2009 Pinot Noir Vespidre is a new wine for the portfolio. Savory, dense, and more darkly fruited than is typical of the vintage, it is a mouth-filling, intense, succulent, velvety-textured effort that will evolve for 1-2 years and drink well through 2019. New father Jim Prosser is well-established in his winery on Parrot Hill in the Chehalem Mountains AVA. He is pleased by the fact that he was able to bring all of his 2009s in under 14% alcohol. Tel.
