Easy drinker and a pleasant surprise. Had this inventoried as a regular Carneros Pinot then noticed it was the Reserve bottling when I pulled it from the cellar. Full bodied, mellow tannins, very fruit forward, plum and black cherry, a bit jammy, not much spice. A long, driving groove. If J.J. Cale had been a winemaker, this is the kind of wine he'd make.

3. Flight Weinprobe Pinot Noir - 2009 L Spertino PN vs 2010 Schug PN Carneros Reserve: - Beide recht konzentriert in der Farbe - Spertino wirklich völlig anders als alle anderen Weine. Fast etwas Eukalyptus. Spannender Wein, für mich passt er aber heute nicht so richtig rein - Schug ist ein Hammer. Toller Wein! Typisch PN, dabei aber schöne Struktur und tolle Frucht. Einer der Gewinner des heutigen Abends

Holding up well. Carneros funk with some black cherry, blueberry/blackberry, sage and a hint of pepper.
