* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An exquisite wine that combines delicacy and harmony with enormously fruity-spicy flavors that fill the mouth. The aromas suggest candied ginger, tropical fruits, vanilla and wildflowers. The flavors are effusively fruity and on the dry side, with refreshingly crisp acidity. Try it with Asian-Pacific fusion foods.

Light, tasty and simple, it offers up pretty aromas of red raspberries, smoke and vanilla. In the mouth it’s fruity and soft. There’s good extracted fruit and a generous dusting of oak. It can’t quite achieve complexity, but it’s a nice wine that’s thoroughly enjoyable.

Lots to like in this simple, varietally proper Pinot. It’s light bodied and silky, with a very soft texture and pretty flavors of cola, cherries, blackberries and toast. Finishes dry and spicy.

Pinot Noir in name only, this wine is dry and harsh. It’s marked by acidity and heat, with just the barest suggestion of cherry fruit.

A sleek, tight wine showing its underlying structure of good acidity and bracing tannins. Fruit is toned down, uncomplicated by oak. On the herbal, austere side, but has plenty of charm and character.

A rather muted nose with some toasty oak sticking out is followed by dried herbal flavors rounded a bit by ripe plums and dried cherries.
