Drew Valenti Vineyard Pinot Noir, Mendocino Ridge, USA

點擊次數：2641

The Mendocino Ridge appellation, which is defined by elevation boundaries, borders Anderson Valley. This Pinot shows cool-climate crispness but also fog-free, ripe flavors of raspberries and cherries that are deep and impressive. With a thick, juvenile mouthfeel, the wine should develop interesting bottle complexities over the next five years.——S.H.(4/1/2011)—— 90

Young and fresh, this Pinot stars ripe, primary fruit flavors of raspberries and cherries, and lots of zingy acidity. It’s jammy and sweet, like the filling from a fruit pie or tart. Delicious, but lacking a certain seriousness. May develop bottle complexity over the next several years.——S.H.(4/1/2011)—— 87
