Medici Pinot noir "Block I,II" 2001

 

$26.95 - Case price
(any 12 or more bottles)

Price: $29.95

Quantity

If I had more cellar space, I'd fill it with a number of the Medici Pinots. Many of them are a near perfect definition of great value Pinot: layered complexity, great acidity, and no sticker shock. The 2001 Medici Block I,II Pinot Noir is loaded with black raspberries and earthy truffle notes. There's even a nuanced hint of grade A maple syrup--the good stuff--on the nose. Well-balanced acidity and touches of cedar and wild spearmint. Like many of the 2001 Pinots, it's showing beautifully. Grab some salmon, whip up some ricotta potato cakes and open a bottle. -ml


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

Although Sineann has a nationwide "cult" status, few people know that Sineann is based at Medici Vineyard, and that Peter Rosback, Sineann owner and winemaker, makes these delicious and quite value priced wines, in small quantity, mostly for sale at the winery only.
