A delicious wine for immediate drinking, the 2004 Pinot Noir Bryan Creek Vineyard is already showing hints of orange in its color. Its red fruit aromatics show signs of maturity, as does its red cherry-filled character. Medium-bodied and lip-smackingly good, it appears to lack the outstanding concentration as well as depth of Adelsheim’s finest 2004s but remains immensely pleasing. Drink it over the next 2 years.
