Ponzi, Merry Edwards

[stevebody]

Around here (the Great NW) Ponzi is the Great Grey Eminence of the Oregon Pinot houses. They've been at it about the longest and have never been rumored to have a truly lame release. Their whites, I can tell you, are infrequent but dazzling. Oregon really produces, in my opinion, FAR better whites than Pinots and, of course, the prices tend to be a LOT more reasonable. If you do the Ponzi dinner, I can just about guarantee solid wines, a few stunning ones, and VERY knowledgeable wine talk from anyone representing the winery. (Lots of great OR wine gossip, too. Ponzi is nothing if not Plugged In!)

Heard a TON of good things about the merry Edwards wines but haven't tried any yet.
