1994 OR Pinot Noir Death Premature

[Randy Caparoso]

Good lord, Bucko. What "authorities" said the '94 vintage of Oregon PN was "dead?" I'm sure some are, but am just as sure that some will continue to improve over the next five, six years. Some are sure drinking great as we speak! Common sense says one should never make blanket statements about any region where decent wine growing is being done, and where the vintage is anywhere from average to way above average (and few would disagree that the '94s were generally exceptional for Oregon).
