June 17, 2005 - Opened not decanted. I really like the Cliff Lede wines, especially the Stags Leap appellations, such as their Claret, Cab and Poetry labels. However, no matter how much I try, I just don't like their Pinots. It hails from Carneros: bright fruit, with a taste that is more sour than sweet, but there is a stripped down medicinal taste that I can't place. I've been told it's not filtered, but something's been done to it, that I can't put my finger on. One more bottle left.
