Score 92/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Robert Parker, Aug 2004
The brilliant, dark ruby/purple-colored 2002 Pinot Noir Seasmoke Vineyard Blocks Q and U is the most Burgundian of these offerings. It reveals an extraordinary perfume of acacia flowers, blueberries, blackberries, forest floor, and background wood smoke. Primary and unevolved, yet beautifully made, this rich, medium to full-bodied Pinot Noir is loaded with concentration yet is irrefutably elegant as well as pure. Give it 1-2 more years of bottle age, and drink it over the following decade. The wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Tel. (805) 937-4251
