Zimri Cellars 2007 Reserve Pinot Noir (Willamette Valley)
- $35
An elegant, restrained, yet lovely Pinot Noir from a much-maligned vintage. Soft, round cherry fruit is wrapped in sandalwood and mocha flavors. Fully ripe with fine tannins and lovely integration of the barrel notes.
— P.G.

Zimri Cellars 2008 Chardonnay (Willamette Valley)
- $18
Bright, fruity and spicy, this palate-lifting effort brings flavors of pineapple, pink grapefruit and melon. Lightly spicy, balanced and showing a little toast around the edges.
— P.G.

Zimri Cellars 2007 La Colina Vineyard Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)
- Online Exclusive
- $25
Light and pretty, with strawberry fruit sporting a spicy top. This is carefully made, pleasing and varietal, and does not push too hard. Tannins could soften up a bit with a little more bottle age.

Zimri Cellars 2006 Chehalem Mountain Vineyards Pinot Noir (Chehalem Mountains)
- $28
Flavors bring a mix of red berries and vanilla cream, along with some noticeable heat from alcohol that is pushing the 14.5% range. After that, the wine just fades away.

Zimri Cellars 2008 Merlot (Umpqua Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A fruity, black cherry nose is accented with leather and forest floor scents. The flavors follow, with smoke and licorice wrapped into the black fruits. Tannins show black tea and a hint of bitterness.

Zimri Cellars 2006 Yamhill Vineyards Chardonnay (Yamhill-Carlton District)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
The scents and flavors suggest fruit that was a bit overripe, like apples left out in the sun. Papaya, banana and other tropical flavors lead into a buttery, toasty finish. Drink up.

Zimri Cellars 2008 La Colina Vineyard Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)
- $25
Heavily influenced by its two years in French oak, this dark and spicy wine seems just a bit flat in the mouth. Perhaps a bottle that was not optimal; here the fruit has been softened and perhaps prematurely aged by its barrel time.
— P.G.
