What to Expect

California has long struggled with Pinot Noir. Finding the right vineyards for this most fickle of grape, one that enjoys a cool growing season yet needs warmth close to harvest to fully ripen, has proven a challenge in such a sunny state. Cooler areas eventually became identified; the Santa Rita Hills, Russian River Valley and Mendocino's Anderson valley are all prime spots for Pinot Noir in California. Unlike the lighter colored and sometimes delicate Pinots of Burgundy, California produces many rich, deep Pinots full of slightly chewy dark berry and cherry fruits with hints of cola, Asian spices and forest floor frequently adding complexity.

IWC 93+ (6/2006): (15.9% alcohol; 100% new oak) Good deep red-ruby. Cooler aromas of black cherry, peat and earth, with an enticing violet topnote. Wonderfully sweet but restrained. A bit less blue fruit in character than the UV Vineyard bottling. Finishes chewy and firm, with suave tannins. This is reportedly from a Romanee-Conti clone, and in fact the aromas and flavors are rather Vosne-like.

this is a perfect wine. if only i received more than just 2 bottles from my allocation. i totally disagree with the "professionals" ratings and would give this closer to 98.

WS 93 (11/2006): Delicious, smooth and creamy, with rich, fleshy spice, black cherry, raspberry and creamy oak. Finishes with a burst of blueberry, anise, sage and a hint of nutmeg from oak. Drink now through 2010. 116 cases made.
