Note di degustazione
The 2009 Pinot Noir Escarpa Vineyard emerges from the glass with sweet herbs, dried flowers, licorice and black cherries. All the elements meld together beautifully in this expressive, layered Pinot. This is an especially round, seamless wine underpinned by bright acidity that gives the wine its focus.

The 2009 Pinot Noir Escarpa Vineyard emerges from the glass with sweet herbs, dried flowers, licorice and black cherries. All the elements meld together beautifully in this expressive, layered Pinot. This is an especially round, seamless wine underpinned by bright acidity that gives the wine its focus. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. Proprietor John Raytek's impressive resume includes two years at Rhys and another four years at Copain. Raytek's wines are distinctive and full of personality. Ceritas is focused on cooler-climates sites. The vineyards are farmed following organic or biodynamic principles, depending on the site. I tasted all of the 2010s from tank in their final blends. These gorgeous wines are deserving of serious attention. Tel. (707) 473-9482
(55) Deep, bright red. Raspberry preserves, cherry-cola and cinnamon on the nose, along with a suave floral nuance. Taut and linear but concentrated, offering incisive, spicy red berry and bitter cherry flavors and a touch of candied rose. Fine-grained tannins add shape and grip but get sucked up by the fruit and floral notes on the persistent finish.
