The 1994 Pinot Noir Carter Vineyard (200 cases) is the most elegant and finesse-styled wine of the six 1994 offerings from Ken Wright. It offers up a beautiful, floral, Chambolle-Musigny-like bouquet of sweet black-cherries and minerals. Soft, round, and extremely well-balanced, this is a medium-bodied wine with well-integrated tannin as well as a lush finish. Drink it over the next 5-7 years. Ken Wright, who was long associated with the fine wines made at McMinnville's Panther Creek, has formed a winery under his own name. The results in 1994 are superb. There are not many Pinot Noir winemakers who can make six separate cuvees, and have five of them nearly outstanding. In fact, this exceptional success rate puts Ken Wright in the company of such Burgundy luminaries as Laurent Ponsot, Lalou Bize-Leroy, Hubert Lignier, J. J. Confuron, and Claude Dugat. Although quantities of the top wines are extremely limited, Wright's sumptuous Pinot Noirs are worth an effort to track down. Kudos to Ken Wright for this marvelous array of Pinot Noirs. Tel.
