2007 Russian River Pinot Wins Medal at 2010 Golden Glass Competition

We're happy to announce the Wait Cellars 2007 Russian River Pinot Noir won a bronze medal at the 2010 Golden Glass wine competition! It was judged against 123 other Pinot Noirs with average pricing in the $30 range, many retailing for much much higher.

Both the 07 and 08 Russian River were showing great over the weekend, we met lots of nice folks, and the entire event was a true pleasure -- not the madhouse that Fort Mason tastings can sometimes devolve into. Tasting through the Italian varietals on hand was a particular pleasure.

What's that, you have no more dark silky 07 on hand? Then get ye to the Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant in the coming weeks to taste it by the glass or pick up a bottle!
