點擊次數：4448

The 1999 Pinot Noir Reserve reveals a deep ruby color as well as obvious new oak and black cherry jam aromas in the bouquet. The wine possesses good volume, depth, and richness. It requires another six months of cellaring. Consume it over the following 5-6 years. This is a distinctive, but juicy, authentic tasting Pinot.This relative newcomer continues to turn out reasonably priced, impeccably made wines. Their new releases fall just short of being outstanding, but are well-made and user-friendly.Tel. (707) 224-1668

There’s some really lovely fruit under lots of new oak, with its charry, woodsy notes. The fruit tends toward black raspberries and red cherries, with spicy, tobacco notes, but it’s not jammy. It’s complex, layered. Dry, with dusty, silky tannins, it’s delicious and elegant.——S.H.(12/15/2001)—— 92
