Clay Hill (DePonte) Pinot noir 03
We're fans of Deponte Cellars, and this lower priced second label from them is a real nice value. It's sinple, fruity, and balanced, an easy drinking everyday wine that goes well with a big salad, burgers, pasta, etc. Isabelle Dutartre is one talented winemaker, and she gets every bit of goodness out of these grapes.
