4/11/2014 - t0pshelf Likes this wine: NRLightheart consistently delivers a good pinot, especially compared to other south santa clara wineries. This one does not disappoint. The carneros sourced grapes deliver a nice but not overwhelmingly floral nose. Texture is smooth, and the wine is well balanced, though it is perhaps a bit more bland than the previous vintage. |

2008 Lightheart Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Rockpile Ridge Vineyardmore |
11/9/2013 - missionpk Likes this wine: 91 pointsI think this is a good balanced CA take on a Bordeaux Superior. You get the same fruit and dry wood tannins, just a bit bigger in all dimensions. More classic, in a sense, then a lot of the lower end Cabernet from CA, as the fruit doesn't really dominate over the structure. |
