roessler sanford & benedict pinot noir (sta. rita hills)

點擊次數(shù)：1388

Rich in cherry and raspberry pie filling flavors, with red currant, cola and exotic pomegranate notes and a super-spicy finish. Bone dry, this Pinot shows the classy elegance of its vineyard source. On the downside is very tart acidity, as if the wine contained a big squirt of lime juice. Hard to tell where it’s going, if anywhere, but nice after decanting with a grilled steak.——S.H.(9/1/2010)—— 91

Tannic and thick now, this is a Pinot Noir you want to cellar. It’s dark and jammy, with blackberry, cherry, raspberry, cocoa and cedar flavors. The vineyard is well known for the necessity of aging its Pinots, and there’s no reason that this one shouldn’t improve between 2011–2015.——S.H.(9/1/2009)—— 92
