| "Good full red. Slightly high-toned, liqueur-like aromas of cherry and raspberry lifted by flowers and brown spices. Silky and suave in texture, with dry but rich flavors of dark fruits, brown spices and earth. Lush and broad but with very good rather than outstanding concentration and focus. A classic Martinborough style of pinot noir, finishing with notes of red berries and smoky underbrush." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 07.
"Part of Craggy Range’s single-vineyard series, this Pinot avoids the sin of excessive sweetness that mars very many New World renditions of the varietal. Instead, it offers deeply-flavored fruit with hints of spice and earth." –89-90+ pts, Paul Lukacs, Wine Review Online, December 4, 2007. | |
