2010 Belle Glos Clark & Telephone Vineyard Pinot Noir, Santa Maria Valley, CA, $41 (S) – Rating 92
Getting wineaux philosophical …this is a sexy smooth and satisfying Pinot. The winemaker refers to this wine as “Christmas in the mouth” and that’s not far off. A rich nose of blueberry, dark fruit and baking spice gives way to a plush mouth-feel full of rich flavors of blueberry, cherry, ripe raspberry and pie spice with notes of leather and cocoa in the finish. Balanced acidity and soft tannins add to the beauty. Buy this Wine
