2005 Kastania Vineyards Sonoma Coast Estate Pinot Noir
14.5% alc., 139 cases, $35.

Although the
cork looked fine, this wine seemed to be a tad oxidized. The aromatics were typical of an aged wine, with
a little good funkiness, raisin, cigar box and sherry notes. The flavors of raisin, sherry and marzipan carried
over . The balance was fine and the finish clean.
