Score 90/100 · Drink 2008-2014, Robert Parker, Dec 2008

The 2006 Pinot Noir Botella reveals a slightly darker medium ruby color, and a fruit-dominated bouquet of red currants, plums, black cherries, and Allspice. Broader, richer, and more savory with additional texture and depth, this beauty can be enjoyed now and over the next 5-6 years. Tel. (805) 737-1600; Fax (805) 737-1620

Dark red. Full-blown cherry and dark berry aromas, with oak spice and incense adding complexity. Fleshy and open-knit, with very good depth to the creamy blackcurrant and black raspberry jam flavors. Not a subtle wine by any means, but there's a lively mineral undertone that lends lift and clarity. Finishes with excellent sappy persistence, a pleasantly bitter cherry pit bite and lingering oak spice. This is delicious right now.
