The great Robert Parker tasted this wine in April, 2003, and described it
Nov. 10, 2003 on eRobertParker.com as follows: "Low yields of 1.1 ton
of fruit per acre (16.5 hectoliters of wine per hectare of vineyard) result-ed
in a medium ruby-colored Pinot offering a big, sweet nose of straw-berries,
cherries, spice box, and cloves. Medium to full-bodied, with
moderate tannin, this pure, earthy, concentrated effort needs another 1-2
years of cellaring. It should drink well for 10-15 years. 90+ points."
WineSkinny.com on Nov. 22, 2004, described it thusly: "Mocha-scented
blueberry and ripe cherry flavors, pick up allspice and a dash of funky
earth. Dusty tannins are offset by a nice, bright acidity and lengthy fin-ish.
Ready to drink now and over the next five or six years."
