| 2009 Benton Lane Pinot Noir Estate Willamette Valley, Oregon WB Rating: 87 Alcohol by volume: 13.5% Price at time of purchase: $26.00 (from winery) Type: Pinot Noir / Burgundy Principal varietal(s): Pinot Noir Complex Burgundian nose displaying earthy cherry and charcoal notes along with a touch of cola. In the mouth quite austere and without much charm at this young age. Needs another year or two. For now, fairly tight and tannic and more interesting than pleasurable.
