LA CREMA SONOMA COAST PINOT NOIR 750mL

90 points Wine & Spirits: "There's a fineness to the raspberry and fraises des bois flavor in this wine, with the crisp impression of fruit just coming into ripeness. The aroma is floral and tight, the finish showing more oak than fruit at the moment, needing a year in bottle to come into balance." (10/09) According to Robert Parker: "The Pinot Noirs include the very good 2007 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast, which exhibits crisp, plum, cherry, and allspice characteristics along with good body and an attractive, fragrant style. It should drink nicely for 3-4 years. This Chardonnay / Pinot Noir specialist should receive rave notices from bargain hunters looking for a top-flight Chardonnay that is complex, rich, and widely available." (12/08) According to Wine Enthusiast: "A fine evocation of a Russian River Pinot from a good vintage. It's dry and silky and crisp, with rich flavors of cherries, raspberries, pomegranates, cola, cedar, cinnamon and pepper. Delicious. Drink now." (08/09)
