Cellar News - April 2011

The 2010 Benton-Lane Pinot Gris was bottled in March and is on its way to the warehouse. Wait till you get
a nose full of the aromatics in this wine. WOW!  Pinot Gris is usually considered a light, docile wine, but
they forgot to tell Chris, Mike and Kim. Once again they have hit it way out of the park!

We are now starting the blends for the 2010 Estate and FIRST CLASS Pinot Noirs. This includes tasting the
lots often (poor babies!), and over time developing the blends.  Stay tuned.
