The 1999 Pinot Noir Jessie Vineyard is this parcel's third crop. Medium to dark ruby-colored, it has an immensely appealing nose of plums, talcum powder, perfume, roses, and violets. Velvety-textured and seamless, this is a medium to full-bodied wine that is packed with lush cherries, blackberries, spices, and cloves. Its exceptionally long finish displays beautifully ripened tannin. Projected maturity: 2005-2010.
