Note di degustazione
The 2005 Pinot Noir Ryan Vineyard is one of the more closed and earthy wines of the vintage, with notes of root beer, damp earth, pomegranate, plum, licorice, and roasted herbs. It is elegant, rich, ripe, and medium to full-bodied with sweet tannins, but it is backward and in need of a good 2-3 years of bottle age. In retrospect, 2006 does not appear to be a very strong vintage for Calera Pinot Noir, but the wines are complex, approachable, and very Burgundian. In a completely different style, the more concentrated 2005s exhibit deeper color as well as more texture, depth, and length. This is a vintage for Calera that should age beautifully for 15 or more years, given the winery’s history of its top vintages aging brilliantly. Tel. (831) 637-9170; Fax (831) 637-9070

Medium red. Musky red berry and cherry aromas are complicated by dried flowers and herbs, with a strong anise note gaining strength with air. Light in body and refreshingly bitter, offering focused cherry flesh and pit flavors, with a rooty licorice topnote. A firm and rather uncompromising wine that benefited from aeration, picking up sweet finishing notes of raspberry and candied plum.
