Mid ruby. Attractively mellow even if not desperately Pinotesque. Sweet and rich on the start – a bit dusty on the finish. I wonder whether this will ever really resolve itself? (JR)

Medium red, with some development at the rim. Musky aromas of strawberry and raspberry. Dusty, tactile and dry, with tightly wound flavors of red berries, minerals and herbs. Pungent, slightly dry-edged pinot in need of another year or two in the bottle. This gained in size and breadth with extended aeration.
The 2001 Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard’s (14.4 acres) medium ruby color is followed by aromas of flowers, sweet cherries, cranberries, and strawberries, medium to full body, outstanding depth as well as ripeness, a broad, succulent texture, and a plush personality. More obviously fruity than the Reed, this attractive 2001 is one of the most forward Pinots from Calera. Barrel samples of the 2002s were all impressive, but these wines are not yet in the marketplace. Approximate ratings include Selleck (92-94), Jensen (90-94), Reed (90-92), Mills (89-91). Tel.
