2007 Mahoney Ranch Pinot Noir

This wine is pure Carneros, grown in the vineyard across from the winery which has produced some of our favorite wines over the last 30 years. Rarely do individual lots of Pinot Noir express intense fruit and deep structure at the same time, yet these did, showing lovely black cherry notes with a pervasive fusion of perfume, black pepper and allspice in the nose. The wine has ample tannins, well-integrated oak and a lush, supple texture.

“Terrific Pinot Noir- balanced, dry and complex, showing exuberantly delicious fruit. Should develop bottle nuance over the next 4-5 years”
