Elegantly balanced Pinot Noir from one of California's best Pinot producers. Attractive gardenia blossom, subdued Eucalyptus and pine needles, and ripe cherry in the the nose. Medium-bodied and smooth in the mouth with spicy red fruits dominating. Very clean and easy going down. Good wine, but pricey at the $50 listed on the web site. - WB team 2002-06-22
