Aromatically, the 2004 Pinot Noir Elizabeth’s Reserve offers candied red cherries. A pretty, sappy wine, it is medium-bodied, suave, pure, and long. Its broad personality unleashes soft layers of sweet red cherries on the taster’s palate in a truly seductive style. Drink it over the next 5-6 years. www.adelsheim.com; tel. (503) 538-3652
