Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Trumpeter Reserve, Pinot Noir 2008, a nice a classic pinot from Tupun
Trumpeter ,Reserve Pinot Noir 2008, By Rutini Wines, USD 15
A PN from Tupungato city (`Tupun´ nickname here) in Uco Valley. The red displays nice typical fruits of pinots with undertones of soft oxidation. Delicate and nicely bitter. Fine chocolaty and toasty edge. It´s balanced and round even not a great pinot lacking complexity and deepness. It may well go 86 points and a good value for a classic pinot. Probably better with more terciary notes in 2-4 years from now.
