Note di degustazione
I find the 2005 Pinot Noir Clos Pepe Vineyard (Early Harvest) more interesting than the straight bottling as the aromatics are brighter and more focused, which gives lift and freshness to the wine. Because of its better overall balance, the Early Harvest actually shows better today, and will also likely age better. Freshly cut roses, raspberries and mint add complexity on the subtle, nuanced close.

Adam Tolmach’s experiment, the 2005 Pinot Noir Clos Pepe Early Harvest, seems to be a borderline failure. Green and herbal, with tart acidity, there is not much pleasure to be found in this wine, and I think it will become increasingly desiccated as it ages. Tel. (805) 649-1674
Bright red. Explosively perfumed, exotic bouquet of red berries, cherry, fresh rose and minerals. Gracefully balanced strawberry and raspberry flavors gain weight and take on a darker character with air, but retain impressive urgency and clarity. Finishes with impressive brisk persistence and an echo of raspberry.
