description: Shows the acidity and firm tannins of this fine vineyard, and also the incredibly ripe fruit of the 2007 vintage. The combination of the two makes for a wine to cellar. It's dry and full-bodied, with masses of blackberries, black cherries, cola, licorice and sandalwood. Good now, with decanting, with roast lamb, but should begin to develop bottle complexity after 2012.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Clone 4 Julia's
