點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2161

Opens with pretty floral scents—violets and rose petals—that lead into sweet, cranberry fruit. Tart and tangy, with a somewhat sharp, acidic mouthfeel, this is a wine that will improve with food. ——W.E.(11/1/2004)—— 84

Bright red berry and cola aromas open WVV’s top-shelf Pinot. The flavors are pure red fruit—like a bowl of berries, plums and cherries. The finish has some fruit skin to it (tannins) as well as a coffee-like flavor and some underlying vanilla.——W.E.(10/1/2002)—— 88

This bottling is the winery’s top cuvee, a blend of the best lots of the other single vineyard Pinots. Tight and steely, its tart, cranberry fruit plays hard against a background of mineral, herb and light coffee. Clearly ageworthy, it has the complexity and structure to merit the score. Cellar Selection. —P.G.——P.G.(4/1/2002)—— 91
