2008 De La Montanya Reserve Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
14.1% alc., 48 cases,
Unreleased. Aged in 50% new French oak barrels.
·
This is a special wine
which displays features of both the Tina’s and Christine’s bottlings. Both
red and black fruits are evident with a perfect integration of oak.
Delicately styled like the Tina’s, but showing more fruit and intensity and
savory notes like Christine’s. The whole package is sensual and
seductive.
