Pinot Noirs

In answer to Logrus's question about the synthetic cork--no, you shouldn't judge by that. Argyle is another Oregon Pinot Noir vintner that uses synthetic corks. More New Zealand producers are going to synthetics or screw caps. It avoids "cork taint" in the wine although suitability for long-term aging of the wines is not proven yet.
Logrus, which wine was it that you found mellow and not too dry? The Cricklewood? Or did you try the Nicolas that others had recommended?
Oops, in rereading one of your later posts I see that you were trying the Nicolas Pinot Noir.
