Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, the 2010 Pinot Noir displays a pronounced nose of warm mulberries, black cherry preserves and red plums with nuances of cloves and dark chocolate. Medium full bodied, it offers plenty of mouth-filling black raspberry and baking spice flavors with a good backbone of refreshing acid, low to medium level fine-grained tannins and a long finish. Drink it now through 2015. Importer: WJ Deutsch & Sons

Pale ruby colored, the 2009 Pinot Noir gives notes of ripe raspberries and warm strawberries with a touch of powdered cinnamon. Light to medium bodied, it has a decent concentration of pure red berry flavors, high acid, a low level of soft tannins and a medium-long finish. Drinking now, it should keep through 2013. Importer: WJ Deutsch & Sons

A disappointing effort, showing a weedy, hay-like profile and fruit that is drying out on the finish. Barely acceptable. ——J.C.(9/1/2011)—— 80

This Pinot Noir has macerated black cherries and bilberry on the lively nose. Sweet ripe blackberry dominating the palate that has chewy tannins, lacks some finesse towards the finish but good weight and I think this should meld together with time.Importer: W J Deutsch & Sons, 108 Corporate park Drive, White Plains NY 10604 Ph 914 251 3291, email lauren.marano@wjdeutsch.com
