| 1999 Brutocao Pinot Noir Feliz Vineyard Block #54 Mendocino, California WB Rating: 86 Alcohol by volume: 14.9% Price at time of purchase: $24.00 (from winery) Type: Pinot Noir / Burgundy Principal varietal(s): Pinot Noir Piercing nose of sweet cherry and plums with some earthiness and a rose petal component. Hides its alcohol, as do many Mendocino reds, behind a soft and pleasing texture. Rich in the mouth, but without the complexity of a higher-level Pinot. Very drinkable at this stage, with no rough edges. Fairly priced for the quality. - HK 2001-11-06 [Back] |
