| 2006 Laurier Vineyards Pinot Noir Los Carneros Sonoma Coast, California WB Rating: 85 Alcohol by volume: 12.5% Price at time of purchase: $9.99 (Bottle Barn, Santa Rosa CA) Type: Pinot Noir / Burgundy Principal varietal(s): Pinot Noir Surprisingly impressive Pinot Noir for the price - and there aren't many Pinot Noirs in that category any more. Deep strawberry in color and quite French-like, similar to a village wine from the Chalonnaise like Givry or Mercurey. Good varietal cherry/strawberry fruit with floral notes, light but elegant feel in the mouth, slightly bitter hollowness in the midrange. Certainly a wine to drink now, and a bargain. - HK 2008-12-30 [Back] |
