Note di degustazione
Previously recommended, but no tasting note given. Exceptionally high quality as well as remarkably fair prices are the signature characteristics of one of California’s longtime, highly respected wine mavens, Tom Dehlinger. His Chardonnays continue to improve with each vintage. In the challenging year of 2006, he has had no problems with either Chardonnay or Pinot Noir. Dehlinger’s Pinot Noirs are essentially made from the Pommard clone, Dijon Clone 777, and the California Heritage clone known as Martini. Tom Dehlinger turns out two wines from Bordeaux varietals. One always thinks of Russian River for its Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, and Syrah rather than for Cabernet Sauvignon. One of the original Rhone Rangers, Tom Dehlinger fashions two Syrahs. Tel.

Inky purple. Deep and rich on the nose, with powerful blueberry and dark cherry scents and a suggestion of iodine. Smoky dark fruit flavors are firmed by solid tannins and pick up a peppery note on the finish. This opened up with some air time, taking on a brighter red fruit tone.
