"This inaugural vintage of Monterey Pinot Noir offers seductive aromas of wild strawberry and fresh tea leaves...subtle notes of earthiness and minerality complement the fruit-driven intensity in the nose. The palate provides layered flavors of strawberry jam and black licorice, with hints of coffee bean and bramble notes that lead to a long and fleshy finish."
- Melissa Stackhouse, La Crema Winemaker
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Reviews: Untitled "The 2007 Pinot Noir Monterey reveals more red currant, pomegranate, and strawberry fruit as well as a decided earthy component in the mouth. It, too, should drink well for 3-4 years.
This Chardonnay / Pinot Noir specialist should receive rave notices from bargain hunters looking for a top-flight Chardonnay that is complex, rich, and widely available." -Rated 88, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Untitled "Straightforward ripe-cherry fruit sets this bottling on solid varietal ground, and, if not one of the more complex offerings in these pages, the wine is sweetened by a nice touch of oak and shows good weight and balance. It should develop further with a few years in the bottle, but it will also make for friendly drinking in the shorter term." -Rated 87, Connoisseur's Guide to California Wines
