Note di degustazione
Pale, dull crimson. Pure, but very light. Distinctive. Good, pure Burgundian smell – as though the wine were made from different clones from most California Pinots. Quite delicate – almost riskily light. A little tannin at the end. Extremely charming if less gutsy than the style of this winery under the old regime of Williams and Selyem themselves. (JR)

The dark ruby/purple-colored, sweet, dense, beautifully fruited 2000 Pinot Noir Russian River (1,400 cases) is more charming and consumer-friendly than most of this estate's Pinots. Although not long-lived, for drinking over the next 4-5 years, it is top-flight. Tel. (707) 433-6425; Fax (707) 433-6546
Medium red. Gamey aromas of strawberry, framboise, tar, mocha, espresso and cinnamon. Fairly intensely flavored but not quite as pure as most of the other 2000 pinots from this winery. Still, this wine seemed to grow fresher as it opened in the glass. Finishes with spice and earth notes and a hint of dryness.
