2010 Loos Family Bohemian Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., 50 cases, pH 3.70, TA 0.71, $44. Release date April 2012. Only
produced in selected vintages. Vineyard is 7 acres in Freestone planted on
Goldridge loam soil. Yields were 2 tons per acre. Clones 115, 667,777 and
Pommard. 9-day cold soak with manual punch downs. Wild and inoculated
yeasts. Aged in 50% new and 50% neutral French Francois Fréres and Remond
Allier oak barrels. Winemakers are Adam Smith and Brad Loos.
·
Moderate
reddish-purple color in the glass. Enticing perfume of red cherries, red plums,
hay and dried herbs. Lighter weighted on the palate, but flavorful, featuring red
cherries and berries accented by savory herbs. The wine has a unique flavor
that distinguishes it from mainstream Pinot Noirs. The tannins are supple and the whole package is well
composed. Still solid two days later from a previously opened and re-corked bottle indicating age ability.
Very good. Source: brad@loosfamilywinery.com or 408-799-5938.

·
Medium reddish-purple color in the glass. Exotic
nose of wild purple berries, Middle Eastern spices, with a little stem and floral bent. Deep, dark moderately
dense dark berry and Hoisin flavor with a savory note of herbs in the background. Definitely earth bound with
typical sinewy Sonoma Coast tannins. Good (+).
