2002 Row Eleven, Pinot Noir, San Luis Obispo/Mendocino, Calif., $24. It is no secret that syrah-wannabe pinots are not at the top of my list. This one is right up my alley. It’s medium bodied with terrific acidity, and the oak is complimentary. A blend of both Pommard and Dijon clones, this wine screams black cherries, brown sugar and spice, finishing long and lovely. A great start for Row Eleven; 91/92.
2002 Row Eleven, Pinot Noir, Santa Maria Valley, Calif., $29. Light ruby in color with aromas of cherries, warm spices, leather and wormwood. Elegant on the entry, the wine is bright, crisp, balanced and all about cherries; 90/90.
