2005 Harmonique Elegancé Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
14.6% alc., 215
cases, $49.50. Inaugural vintage for this bottling. Harvested at 24.3º Brix.
Sourced in small part from the Day Ranch Vineyard but primarily the Conzelman
(formerly Rose Family) Vineyard. The Old Block (24 years old) of the
Conzelman Vineyard consists of 4 acres of cordon pruned Martini clone. Yields
were less than 2 tons per acre.
·
Darkest in color of the three 2005 Pinot Noirs.
Hi-tone aromas of plums, raisins, sage and a hint of oak. Rich and ripe flavored
dark fruits with notes of raisin, anise and Snicker’s bar, supple tannins, a silky
and smooth texture, and a bright finish flush with tangerine peel. The oak is
nicely integrated and the brisk acidity makes you reach for another sip.

2005 Harmonique The Noble One Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
14.3%
alc., 372 cases, $53. Primarily from Klindt Vineyard, clones 113, 115, 667
and Pommard, and a little Day Ranch. Harvested at 24.5º Brix.
·
Red and
black fruits on the nose with an appealing hint of minerality, cola and herbs.
Similar to Elegancé but not as ripely flavored. Well-perfumed dark fruit on
the palate with a good bit of animale and earthiness. Impeccable harmony.
