2010 Cabot Vineyards Nash Mill Vineyard Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
14.4% alc.,
45 cases, $42. A stellar 4-acre vineyard source located in the deep end of the
Anderson Valley adjacent Burt Williams’ Morning Dew Ranch Vineyard.
Pommard clone aged in once used French oak barrels.
·
Medium reddish-purple
color in the glass. Shy aromas of dark red cherries and raspberries with oakdriven
notes of toast and smoke in the background. Wood-infused core of
cherries with some verve, augmented by balanced tannins and refreshing
acidity. Finishes with much fanfare exhibiting a long cherry-driven flourish.
Tasted the next day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle, the wine had
partially shed its oak topcoat, and the fruit was more expressive. I would give
this wine a few years for the oak to integrate and by then it should be special. Good (+).

2009 Husch Nash Mill Vineyard Estate Bottled Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
14.3% alc., 18 cases, $40. This winery is celebrating 40 years. The
vineyard from which the grapes are sourced is located at the cool
northern end of the Anderson Valley. Planted in 2003, the vineyard
consists of four acres of Pinot Noir and includes clones Pommard 5 and
Dijon 667 and 777. Very low yields due to frost in this vintage.
·
Moderately light in color in the glass. Embracing aromas of black cherries, black
raspberries and woodshed picking up intensity over time in the glass. An hi-collared
wine with crisp and bright flavors of dark cherries, dark red berries, cola,
baking spice and Hoison sauce, wrapped in ripe, grainy tannins, finishing with an
amazing persistence rarely seen in California Pinot Noir. Beautiful interplay
between fruit and tannin. Class in the glass that will thoroughly please Pinot connoisseurs. Only available at
klwine.com.
