Saintsbury Brown Ranch Pinot Noir

[Innkeeper]

Dan Berger (who has a Pinot palate similiar to Bucko's) has this to say about the "Brown Ranch": "Other wines in the blind tasting (of Carneros Pinots) and not scoring well included 2002 Acacia "Beckstoffer" ($60); 2001 Etude "Heirloom" ($80); and 2000 Saintsbury "Brown Ranch" $75). Most were judged to be too alcoholic or tannic or both." ("Dan Berger's Vintage Experiances", July 8, 2004).
