Paul Hobbs Russian River Pinot Noir 2007

This is one of those cases of wrong bottle right choice. During a dinner party I reached into the chardonnay bin, and pulled out what I thought was a Paul Hobbs chardonnay. The label looks the same, so I pulled the cork and started to poor a taste and had an "Oh S*%#" moment. Long story short, this is a great pinot. Perfectly balanced, nice fruit but not over powering. I have been drinking on the bottle for over a week (small glass per night). Bottom line this is an outstanding example of a Russian River Pinot. If you see it, go for it.
