| Vintage: | 2004 |
| Varietal: | Pinot Noir |
| Appellation: | Carneros |
| Alcohol %: | 14.7 |
| Tasting Notes: | This vintage of the Beckstoffer Pinot Noir is as dark and rich as ever. The exotic, spicy nose incorporates aromas of raspberry, blackberry, orange zest, maple and baking spices. The palate has great weight and a luscious mid-palate that reveals flavors of dark fruit and Asian spice. The long finish will only improve with a few years of cellaring. Enjoy this luscious wine with roast lamb, pasta with wild mushrooms or spicy pork rojo. |
| Ratings: | 3 Stars - Barnyard, rustic-good fruit shines through. Almost Burgundian-subtle but solid fruit, clean Pinot character comes through. Decanter - April 2006 |
