  • 2007 La Fenêtre Pinot Noir Calmant Creek - USA, California, Central Coast, Santa Maria Valley (11/2/2009)
    I didn't think this owuld be ready but I really wanted to try a red. It has a lovely pale cherry color. i love Pinot's that look light but are not. Lots of cherris and cherry liquer flavors. I kept expecting it to have some stink to it (it just looked like it would), but this was clean. I love the stink. After 4 hours, it did show a bit of development and I suspect it will have mroe complex aromatics in a few years. These are nice now, but really primary. The fruit is open but there is zero development at this point. While I am not sure how it will develop, I think that it will be very good in 2012 thru 2020. (91 pts.)
