It would be interesting to insert the 2010 Pinot Noir Cool Climate (100% Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir; 4,500 cases produced) in a blind tasting against more expensive domestic Pinots or French Burgundies. A dark ruby color is followed by notions of underbrush, loamy soil, red cherries and spice. Medium-bodied and surprisingly elegant with more flavor and intensity than one would expect at this price, it should drink well for 1-3 years. This is the finest portfolio of value-priced wines from Cline Cellars that I have tasted to date.Tel. (707) 940-4030; Fax (707) 940-4034

Excessive acidity gives this wine a sour bite, while the flavors, of cherries and cranberries, are tart. Significant new oak helps to provide spicy richness. Drink now.——S.H.(12/1/2011)—— 85
