Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - Skinner Fine Wine Auction Reception (Boston, MA): Skinner auction reception. Tasted from magnum. Beautiful garnet color. Nose of black cherry, kirsh with an earthy background. Palate of black cherry, earth and a hint of mushroom. Soft sweet tannins. This wine was sooo smooth, utterly delicious and I have to agree with one of the reviewers below that it was certainly one of the best New World pinots I've ever tasted. It was the surprise of the evening as it was served away from the crowd and was not part of the lots. All the better...Ben and I went back for seconds! It makes me realize that many of us drink our New World pinots too early.
