2007 Sass Pinot Noir, Christi’s CuveeFloral elegance in the aromas of violets, blackberries and spice. Blackberry-red cherry flavors with some truffly forest floor and pepper. Medium-bodied with a lingering finish. Elegance and finesse in this very feminine wine, with perfect balance of fruit, acidity and silky tannins. Should age extremely well. Drink now through 2018. |
Price: $28/bottle; Only 75 cases made. Very Limited. |
2008 Sass Pinot Noir, Willamette ValleyDark and red cherry, strawberry and black raspberry notes with a lovely, silky mouthfeel, perfect balance and a finish that just keeps going. The 2008 vintage is much-heralded. I’ll just say it was the best fruit I’ve worked with in nearly 20 years of winemaking. It’s a wine of power and elegance. Drink now through 2018. Pommard, Wadenswil, and Dijon clones from five vineyards. |
