A beautiful deep ruby/plum color with hints of purple is followed by aromas of flowers, raspberries and blueberries in this medium to full-bodied 2009 Pinot Noir. It possesses fresh acidity, stunning purity, a long, expansive mouthfeel, terrific equilibrium, and the oak is completely concealed by the layers of fruit. It should drink well for another 10-15 years.

The pale to medium ruby-garnet colored 2009 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard gives up toast, woodsmoke, flint, dried red berries and black fruit hints with earthy/tertiary notes of mushroom, wet bark, forest floor and graphite. The medium-bodied palate is silky and fully mature but by no means dried up, with a grainy frame and just enough freshness on the long, earthy finish. This is holding well, but you might consider popping corks on this soon.
