There is more underbrush and gaminess, which is not unusual for St Inn I think. I love St Inn in general, but I am worried about my half case of 02 Seven Springs - I sincerely hope its a dumb phase now. <BR/><BR/>Wish I know about that wine store on 22nd a month ago. I was in portland on business and I went instead to Great Wine Buys on Broadway and had a case shipped back to NY. The prices on several wines are worse according to the website. Brickhouse Dijonnais is like 6 bucks cheaper, for example. I've never been to NW Portland though.

I've never had his gris before. I've liked a few from Oregon, but many seem overly alcoholic to me. The alcoholic seems to dominate the otherwise nice minerally, spicy fruit aromas and flavors.Vincent Fritzschehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18153962387209512138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10545804.post-1122579834148099062005-07-28T12:43:00.000-07:002005-07-28T12:43:00.000-07:00They didn't happen to be tasting the J.

This one was hands down the best, most notably for it's huge and long finish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
