2006 Drew Fog-Eater Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
14.3% alc., 495 cases, $42. Made from two Anderson
Valley vineyards heavily influenced by coastal fog.

This wine has the most flamboyant aromatics of
the lineup with spiced cherries, watermelon, fresh sawn oak and a little barnyard. Plenty of lovable Pinot
fruits, fine-grained tannins which could use some time to shed, and velvety texture. Doesn’t have the twinkle
that the Weir has, but perfectly fine in its own right.
