2008 De La Montanya Christine’s Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
14.4% alc., 47 cases, $45
·
Moderate reddish-purple color in the glass. An
appealingly fruity nose showing fresh dark stone fruits and a hint of herbal oak.
Very taste essence of black cherries and plums with riffs of brown sugar, anise
and oak wrapped in smooth tannins and finishing with a welcoming grip of
acidity. Still young and needs to further integrate the oak, but Very good now.

2006 De La Montanya Christine’s Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
13.0% alc., 47 cases, $40.
·
Lovely nose of cherries, roses, Asian spice and a hint of anise. The flavors echo the aromas. Crisp and
clean in the mouth. This wine delivers the best aromatics of the lineup, but the fruit is lacking some intensity
and complexity on the palate compared to the other wines.
