Dark red. Powerful aromas of black raspberry, cherry and mocha, with slow-mounting Indian spices. Pliant dark berry flavors are framed by velvety tannins and given bite by a note of bitter cherry pit. Gains weight and sweetness with air, finishing with a strong echo of blackcurrant. This will stand up to a strongly seasoned piece of grilled or braised lamb.

Score 89/100 · Drink 2008-2012, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Oct 2008

The 2006 Pinot Noir Meyer Vineyard exhibits a dollop of eucalyptus to accompany fragrant spice box, cherry and rose petal aromas. On the palate it is friendly and forward with good depth and length but without the structure for extended cellaring. Drink it over the next four years. Lemelson Vineyards is certified organic which encompasses six estate vineyards and 120 producing acres. All of the wines are fermented with native yeasts. Tel.
