Nearly five years of age, and giving its best. Slowly losing berry fruit, it’s turning dry and mushroomy. A fascinating, intricate Pinot Noir, Burgundian in framework, that should continue to interest over the next five years.——S.H.(8/1/2011)—— 91

The near-perfect marriage of acidity and fruit stars in this dramatically structured wine. The flavors, of red cherries and ripe red plums, are pure as can be, and that crispness boosts and brightens them to starburst quality. Lots of oak adds a delicious finish of toast, sweet vanilla and spice. Absolutely gorgeous Pinot Noir.——S.H.(11/1/2007)—— 94

Harmonique has released two ’02 Pinots from Anderson Valley and they display how the terroir varies. This one, from a cooler site, is the darker, more full-bodied. It’s exceptionally rich in cherry jam flavors, yet delicate and silky.——S.H.(11/1/2005)—— 92
