The 2003 Pinot Noir Rio Vista Vineyard boasts extraordinary aromatics that blast from the glass. Scents of strawberries, plums, forest floor, beef blood, fresh mushrooms, and underbrush are accompanied by a striking, floral, earthy, Clos de la Roche grand cru character. The wine is fresh and full-bodied in the mouth, offering hints of rose petals and spice along with gorgeous levels of fruit, medium to full body, light to moderate tannin, and a long, textured finish. It is a brilliant Pinot Noir that showcases the extraordinary fruit that can be achieved in this cool climate growing region. Tel. (805) 452-5609
