Score 90/100 · Josh Raynolds, Nov 2007

Medium red. High-pitched cherry and licorice scents are impressively pungent and focused. Suave red fruit flavors are gently supported by silky tannins and carry through the finish with excellent persistence. Leaves a sappy, sweet impression but retains focus and energy.

This venerable winery, which has thirty years of history (long by California standards), has turned out a bevy of new releases. The 2004 Pinot Noir Selleck Vineyard possesses a deep, dark garnet/ruby color in addition to dense, forest floor aromas reminiscent of a DRC Richebourg or Grand Echezeaux. Extraordinarily complex notes of truffles, berries, and damp forest are both enticing and profound. This full-bodied, rich, long, compelling Pinot Noir can be drunk now, but it will be even better with 2-4 years of bottle age. It should keep for 12-15 years. It is stunning stuff! Tel.
