The 2001 Pinot Noir Botella possesses a saturated ruby/purple color as well as delicate floral, red cherry, and pomegranate aromas, medium body, firm tannin, good acidity, and outstanding purity. However, it is still playing it close to the vest, so 6-12 more months of bottle age is recommended. Drink it over the following 6-7 years. One of the new, promising operations emerging from the cool climate vineyards of Santa Rita Hills, this offering is a distinctive, pretty Pinot exhibiting considerable potential.Tel. (805) 737-1600
