I think this region should be called my Pinot Noir and white region! What I notice is I do not try as many older wines as I thought or maybe they are not as memorable, not sure but as I am filling out each bracket, I am learning more about my palette! I also know most of these wines were suggested on different places from blogs to wine magazines and I am glad I have the ability to find and try these wines!

Tomorrow, I will roll out the next 16 wines….

Much LOVE and wine,

Tammi

This wine is not in the 2nd Bracket, but It is AWESOME!!!
