Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nice and delicately structured in the mouth, an elegant wine with fine acidity and a silky finish. The classic Russian River flavors suggest cherries, cola, mocha and cinnamon spice.

A nice wine, good and dry. It has forward peach, pineapple, apricot and oaky vanilla and caramel flavors, and a finely acidic finish.

Bearboat Chardonnay - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich and soft, with a velvety texture, this lovely Syrah has forward flavors of caramelized blackberries and blueberries, grilled bacon, sautéed wild mushrooms, black pepper and sweet, smoky oak. The tannin structure is dense and fine. It’s very good now, with decanting, and hints at additional complexities over the next 4–5 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Heavily oaked with well-charred wood, so you get lots of upfront toast. Below is a nice Chard with pleasant peach and apple flavors. Finishes dry and spicy.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A very nice Pinot, actually Bearboat’s best yet, that shows the dry silkiness of a fine Russian River Pinot, and also some complex layers of flavor. Cherries, rhubarb, pomegranates, orange zest, herb tea, clove and pepper all mingle together, enlivened by crisp acidity.

Bearboat Pinot Noir - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ample cedary shadings adorn sweet fruit. Creamy mocha notes layered over pie-cherry and strawberry flavors give the palate an almost milkshake quality. Then the wine switches gears and the cedary element takes over. It closes abruptly, tart and woody.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There’s enough fruit in this simple, soda-like Pinot Noir to start an orchard. It has candied flavors of raspberries, red cherries, strawberries and cola, with oak contributing the usual caramel and vanilla. But it sure is tasty.

Rough and earthy, with some apple and peach flavors and a touch of oak, but also vegetal and mushroom elements. Very dry, with crisp acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet smoky oak and a boatload of fruit dominate this soft, tasty Pinot Noir. The aromas and flavors include sandalwood, vanilla, raspberries, strawberries, red cherries and bacon. It’s a pretty, polished and silky wine for drinking now with a nice steak or lamb chop.

Bearboat Pinot Noir - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Made in a Chablis style, this Chardonnay is bone dry and crisp in acidity. The pineapple and peach flavors are integrated with stony minerals. It’s not a complex wine, but is super-clean and zesty, a nice complement to shellfish, mushroom risotto or a perfectly roasted chicken.
