From the folks at Cooper Mountain, the Cooper Hill 2008 Pinot Noir is a wine that offers one of the better quality-to-price ratios at $18 (you can often find it discounted further).

This biodynamic and organic certified pinot noir was a clear garnet read in the glass, offering sweet spicy cherry fruit to the nose combined with notes of earth and talc. On the palate, the Cooper Hill was well balanced with rich red fruit, good acidity, and a long cherry finish.

We paired this delicious Oregon pinot noir with slow roasted pork shoulder fajitas that were comprised of fresh guacamole, tomatoes, cilantro, cheese and sour cream.

For anyone seeking an entry-level pinot noir, the Cooper Hill offers a terrific starting point. This is a well made, approachable wine at a very accessible price point.
