Community Tasting Note

  December 16, 2008 - popped and poured after drinking a 4 day old '06 Pali Momtazi, which really showed how corked or just how piss poor this wine was. WOW. This is as bad as the '05 Sonoma Coast pinots from Marimar Estate. Interestingly I bought this wine direct from the winery while visiting it in the fall, but it tasted cooked/earthy/no fruit just as the regular estate pinots (the basic Sonoma Coast Dona Margarita bottlings) did, which I purchased from LA Wine Co. Either '05 was a terrible year for them or they shipped a ton of cooked wines out and no one would own up to the fact, even LA Wine Co. I can't believe how much money I've wasted on this producer direct and indirect. Why buy this when you can walk in or call Rochioli and get a consistently delicious Pinot???????
