Tasting notes
The 2002 Pinot Noir Three Sisters’ fragrant nose of flowers interwoven with blueberries and forest floor is reminiscent of a grand cru from the Cotes de Nuit. The wine has fabulous fruit on the attack, beautiful structure, medium to full body, and a purity and almost ethereal lightness of being despite significant richness and intensity. It should age beautifully for up to a decade. Tel. (707) 258-3608; Fax (707) 942-5633

Less expressive on the nose than the Bondi, hinting at spices, smoke and underbrush. Fat, round and sweet, but not as showy today as the Bondi. Notes of raspberry, earth, smoke and truffle. Comes across as less evolved, and yet the tannins are a bit dustier.
Figs, soy, damp earth, sweet currant, and plum aromas soar from the glass of the 2002 Pinot Noir Three Sisters-Lambing Barn Vineyard. With a fragrant style, an elegant, broad palate, and a long finish, this evolved 2002 should drink well for 7-8 years. (Release date Fall 2005) Tel. (707) 258-3608; Fax (707) 942-5633
