92 Points

Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - a few 2006 cali pinots(with a couple of 05s) (think cafe, chicago IL): nose: clean and precise nose that is evocative at the same time with tones of ginger, lemon/lime, peach tones, and bits of spring time white florals to provide depth and intrigue

taste: purly balanced with a mineral base that provides support for ginger tones, apple tones, peaches, and white florals with crisp acidity

overall: Great balance to this wine. On the opposite spectrum of the big and heavy chards that come out of california, it makes more use of precision in taking on a burgundian style and vigor that almost wants to be the california version of a puligny-montrachet.
