This is one of the most balanced and delicious of Testarossa’s new 2006 Pinots. The vineyard is in the tenderloin of the appellation, and the wine brims with acid-brightened raspberry, cherry, cola, pomegranate and oak flavors that finish long and dry. It has the full-bodied appeal of a Santa Lucia Pinot, but maintains a certain delicacy and finesse.——S.H.(5/1/2008)—— 92
