The 2000 Pinot Noir Velvet Sisters Vineyard reveals a complex aromatic display of plums, red currants, cherries, earth, and spice. It possesses delicate flavors, low acidity, fine ripeness, and a seductive, premier cru Cotes de Beaune-like personality. This is the only Pinot Noir offering where the acidity seemed moderate rather than high. Kudos to winemaker Mike Sullivan and proprietor Don Hartford.
