    Drank the Cristom back to back with what was left of the Imagery. I don't think my wine vocabulary to be very adequate but do consider the Imagery to be more jammy and round than the Cristom. The Cristom was lovely though, thank you for the rec Keith. I can only imagine what one of these tastes like after a few years. I have to keep my eyes open for the wines you and SB have suggested.

    Davide. I'll have to root around in the cave...I think I have some more Cristom in there...maybe from 2010 or 2012 vintage. Anybody here had / remember Kalin? I have one bottle left of the 1997 I think.

    Davide. Found some of these. I must have consumed all of the 2012 Cristom but have 3 of the fabulous 2010 left. The Kalin is my last bottle 1997. Thought seeing two French beside two U.S. bottles would be fun.
    The Les Pruliers is the last bottle of the 03, which was not a great year but I still have six of the 2005 down there. We're having duck this Saturday andI am opening a Dom. Drouhin 2010.

    Love that backsplash....Unfortunately the Cristom is still a touch too rich for me to drink as often as I'd like. I've yet to find the other bottles you guys have recommended that are at a slightly lower price point. Will be stopping by a well stocked store on the way home with my eyes open.
    Happy Friday guys.

    well, over production sometimes is an issue, but for entry level Oregon pinot A-Z is well known for a very good QPR. I do not like their second tier "Acrobat" series, though.

    and if you want to try a nice value in Cali pinot, see if your wine shop carries "The Pinot Project". try a bottle. I think its in the $ 16 range.
