International Wine Cellar Author: Josh Raynolds Issue: Issue 135

($39) Deep red. Spicy cherry and raspberry on the nose, with exotic cola and cinnamon qualities adding complexity. Sweet red berry and kirsch flavors are open-knit, juicy and lightly firmed by silky tannins. Gains a peppery, spicy quality on the finish, which is smoky, sweet, broad and long. "The lots for this bottling are chosen for being fruit-driven and requiring less time to open," said winemaker Kris Curran.

Firm, ripe and spicy, with a mix of dark fruits, blackberry and wild berry, with an attractive floral scent. Gains richness and depth while holding its focus. The tannins provide structure and a nice mouthfeel. 1,250 cases made.

I might be wrong about Sea Smoke. Ripe style. The finish was disjoint for the first hour, then it blosson into great mineral finish after 2-3 hours. For young vines, this is very impressive. Will revisit Sea Smoke soon.

Good to average Pinot. No flaws, just not as intense or complex as I would like. At worst a little boring.

This is a polished, fragrant, well crafted wine, one with balanced fruit, tannin and acidity. Definitely large-scaled and New World in style - there's no mistaking this for burgundy. It's very ripe-tasting but not a flabby fruit bomb, has excellent focus and structure, and just enough tannin to pair well with well seasoned grilled meats. I enjoyed this as much as I did the 2003 of the same cuvee.
