Fank, if it is an Eric Soloman selection it will be good to excellent. That bottling is a wonderful rose made from old vine Granacha if memory serves.

before the meal, 2016 Le Val Merlot. lightest, softest merlot I've had. Not a huge merlot fan, but this was nice and thin, could have gone well with the turkey, but...

with the turkey, 2015 Smoke Tree Pinot Noir Sonoma County, Been searching for an affordable light pinot noir for short money. This was under $20, maybe was $20, works for me. Tired of big fruit forward pinot noirs, may as well have a cab sauv.

others had 2017 San Angelo Pinot Grigio Toscana (Castello Banfi). Sipped it. Liked it.

2010, Henri Gouges Nuits St Georgs Clos de Porrets St Georges, Nuits St Georges, Cote de Nuits, Burgundy, France. Before dinner.

2015, St Damian Gigondas La Louisinane, Gigondas, Rhone Valley, France. With dinner.

2006, Climens, Barsac, Bordeaux, France. After dinner.

Frank, try Oregon Pinot Noir from Willamette Valley, Argentinian Pinot Noir from Patagonia, or Red Burgundy labeled Bourgone Rouge. These will be the types of Pinot Noir you are looking for. Also Beaujolais Village or single village Beaujolais, even though this is Gamay you should like these, skip anything by Georges Deuboeufand and Louis Jadot.

We only see wines from Willamette Valley. It would be nice if we could get wines from Rouge Valley and its sub appellations.

Applegate valley, Talent and Eagle Point produce some great wines there’s tons of “micro-climates” and soil differences.

Z, if it isn't to much trouble could you post a couple of pictures of your wine country? I would love to see them and imagine others would too.
