Big, Bold, Powerful,
Dark, Dense -
that's Peter Rosback's
2006 Pinot noirs.
Sineann
"Oregon" Pinot noir 06
$32.36/$35.95
Peter's one
blended Pinot noir (made from
several different vineyards'
fruit). Fresh flavors
of berry fruit with a spicy
hint of cinnamon make this Peter's
most approachable, ready to
drink 2006 Pinot noir.
Scents
are of fresh blackberry and
raspberry, with enticing
hints of toasty cinnamon and
strawberry candy. Flavors
are a wow! Sweet and
spicy red and black raspberry,
blackberry and red cherry mingle
with buttery cinnamon notes.
While present, acids and tannins
take a back seat to the sweet
fruit flavors of this easy to
love wine.
This is an
ideal wine to offer to friends
who want to try Oregon Pinot
noir. Its sweet spicy fruit
flavors and light acidity and
tannins appeal to wine neophytes
and Pinot experts alike.
Sineann
Resonance
Vineyard Pinot noir 06
$43.16/$47.95
The perfumed
nose of the Resonance 2006 shows
layers of red and black fruit
intermingled with the scent
of roses and violets. The complex
scent continues in the flavor
of the wine.
Sweet red raspberry,
red cherry, red currant, red
plum, and other red fruit provide
layers and layers of lush fruit
flavors. Great, refreshing acidity
and seamless silky tannins prevail
in the long and complex finish.
Sineann
Resonance Vineyard Reserve Pinot
noir 06
$64.75/$71.95
First
Reserve Pinot noir made by
Sineann,
made from a few of the very
best barrels of the winery's
Resonance Vineyard wine. Scents
are of dark berry and black
cherry with distinct and appealing
hints of rose petals and violets.
Buttery, toasty barrel oak also
figure in the nose.
Flavors are
of supersweet blackberry, marionberry,
and other berry fruit. The wine
shows great depth, more than
the regular Resonance 2006,
and it is somewhat closed, reflecting
the aging potential and dense
bigness of the Reserve. We're
interested in trying the wine
in 2-5 years. It shows all the
hallmarks of a very fine Pinot
noir made in the dense, over-the-top
style Peter Rosback is known
for.
Sineann
Lachini Vineyard Pinot noir 06
$37.76/$41.95
Sweet black
fruit flavors dominate, and
this dense Pinot noir has an
unctuous, smooth mouthfeel.
This wine is positively "fat" with
dark, silky, and intense fruit
flavors.
Sineann
Wyeast VIneyard Pinot noir
06
$37.76/$41.95
Sweet red raspberry,
red cherry and red currant fruit
intermingle with yummy barrel
toast in scent and flavor.
A refreshing acidity balances
the intense fruit flavors and
emphasizes the oak components
in the silky, well integrated
tannins. Unique in the Sineann
lineup, a most uplifting blend
of intensity, red fruit, sweet
acidity and appealing barrel
flavors.
Sineann
Phelps Creek Vineyard Pinot noir
06
$37.76/$41.95
Big, unctuous
black raspberry and black fruits
are accompanied by hints of
licorice and tar in this dense,
massive wine. A lush, liqueur-like
quality makes this wine ideal
for lovers of over-the-top intensity
in their Pinot noirs.
Sineann
Covey Ridge Vineyard Pinot noir
06
$37.76/$41.95
A big, sappy,
sweet Pinot noir with an intense
liqueur flavor dominated
by black cherry, black currant
and other dark fruit. There
are hints of anise and smoke
in the dense finish with restrained
acidity and tannins. The wine
is driven by a density that
coats your palate.
Sineann
Schindler Vineyard Pinot noir
06
$37.76/$41.95
This big, dense
black fruit dominated Pinot
noir has an appealing Chambord
nose with smoky
black fruit and hints of oak.
Flavors of super sweet black cherry
mingle with licorice, pepper,
and black fruit liqueur.
There's lots of body from smooth
tannins and a dense structure.

Old Vine Zinfandel
2006
Just
Released
Sineann
Old Vine Zinfandel 06
$35.95/$32.36
The Pacific
Northwest's only cult
Zinfandel. Huge and lush
are understatements. The
2006 enters your mouth
like a plush velvet carpet,
with oozing blackberry
and plum jam flavors followed
by a finish that just
takes over!
The 2006 almost
black in color. Layers
and layers of fruit hit
your nose and palate with
incredible depth. Dark
cherry and raspberry jam
simply ooze from this
wine. As always, it’s
very aromatic with nice
spicy notes, a little
cedar and a touch of leather
dancing in the background.
From tree-trunk
like 100 year-old vines
in Lonnie Wright's Pines
Vineyard, near the Dalles
(Oregon).
