About the Wine

About the Wine
2006 is being touted as one of the finest vintages of the decade for Pinot Noir in the Anderson Valley/Sonoma regions. Chronicle’s Cerise Vineyard, located between 800 and 1,200 feet above the floor of Anderson Valley on steep slopes facing south, produces wines of excellent structure and backbone that took full advantage of this vintage. This wine is characterized by spice tones and pure cherry fruit that age particularly well and although showing well now, it will fully blossom after one to two years bottle aging.
 

Tasting Panel Notes
Tasting Panel Notes
If we were not aware of the quality Pinots coming out of Anderson Valley these days, we definitely are now. What an absolute gem this wine is. It encompasses everything we love about California Pinot Noir - bright red fruit, balanced acid and superb structure – that make this wine rival our Burgundian chaps. We’re picky about our Pinot Noirs, and after tasting this ultra-exclusive Cerise Vineyard Pinot, we were tempted to just buy out the entire small allocation all to ourselves right then and there....no, really, we were.

Winemaker’s Quote:
“Cerise shows intriguing herbal and brushy aromas with brambly blackberry and raspberry patch. The woodsy notes frame a dense and chewy, serious mid-palate. This wine has good lift, structure, and concentration with a strong backbone and dense tannins that will reward patience and cellaring. This wine will get even better with age.”
