The 2007 Pinot Noir Rincon Vineyard has a color similar to the Rosemary’s. Dense ruby/purple-tinged, with a slightly more herbal, earthy nose, the underbrush notes are more obvious than in the Rosemary’s. Some new oak is also more apparent in this wine. In the mouth, it turns on its charm in a convincing manner. Wonderfully broad, expansive, sweet raspberry and black cherry fruit cascade over the palate, with no hard edges. Rich, full-bodied, and somewhat of an anomaly in that the flavors seem more evolved than the aromatics, this is another gorgeous Pinot Noir from the Talley Family that should drink nicely for up to a decade. The one superstar for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the Edna Valley is Talley Vineyards. Interestingly, they make most of their money growing vegetables rather than grapes. Yet Brian Talley and his team continue to turn out extremely elegant, European styled wines from this micro-climate at the southern end of the Edna Valley, not far from Arroyo Seco. The production of the single-vineyard Pinot Noirs is slightly lower than the Chardonnays, with about 500 cases of the Rincon and Rosemary’s, and only 225 of the Stone Corral. Kudos to Brian Talley. He has always made wonderful wine, but these are among the very best I have ever tasted from him. Tel. (805) 489-0446
