Pinot Noir: medium bodied, spicy... and bacon-y?

According to Jim Eastman’s music & wine blog, there is indeed a wine that tastes like bacon! He describes his first whiff of the Rock Point 2007 Pinot Noir

The glass arrived. I shove my nose in the glass. No doubt. Overwhelming. Bacon! Smoky, spicy bacon. Good bacon at that. Applewood smoked bacon with pepper on it. That kind of bacon. 

Mmmm... I would love to be sipping on a glass of wine that is “nice and earthy, like a free-range hog” right about now. Has anyone tried it already?
