Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 28, 2004 - i'm having a very nice evening, thank you very much. my wife's cooking swordfish, it's cold outside here in scottsdale, and the fire is raging.

zeroing in on the elusive grape, as always. i'm stunned by this wine. i've had plenty of wines from this producer, but some of the more exotic one's remain in storage untried. nevertheless, cry me a river as i only have this one bottle. can a wine be powerful and subdued at the same time? 13.9% alcohol that is completely hidden. this has forest floor in a manner that i'm crazy about rather than overwhelmed by. i would label this a burgundian california pinot. full bodied, but true to the varietal. nothing satisfies me as finding a pinot that delivers (thanks, florida jim, for that descriptive). big thumbs up
