2002 Stephen Vincent Sonoma Coast Lakeville Vineyard Pinot Noir

Actually, this ought to go into Best Buys/Steal Deals, as this is a wonderful Pinot Noir for $12. Garnet color, bright cherry nose and entry, with brilliant cinnamon and clove spices on a lingering finish. Nice texture and acidity, clean Pinot package. I'd have been happy if it had cost double. 13% alc.

One of the best deals for Pinot I've ever come across. If you see it, don't be put off by the somewhat cheap looking label (plain white square label with small black script), as I almost was. Anne actually tossed it into the bin after I had passed on 1st glance. Glad she did. We'll be back for a case.

Can't get it in the Baltimore area...darn.

We popped our third one of these last night. It would have been consumed faster if I hadn't spent most of the time sniffing the wonderful red spices this puts out. Simply fills the room. I noticed a bit of plum this time, but otherwise my TN remains the same. At $12, this is an obvious hit.

Can't buy more, however, as I've got to replace my cellar before making any more purchases [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/frown.gif[/img]
