The 2006 Pinot Noir Beacon Hill reveals a touch of eucalyptus in its attractive perfume. Darker, denser, and more structured than its North Valley sibling, this well-balanced, lengthy effort will evolve for 2-3 years. --92 points, The Wine Advocate
“Brilliant red color. Sexy bouquet of wild strawberry, raspberry, mocha
and clove. Pliant red fruit flavors gain weight and power with air, picking up
blackberry and anise qualities. Spice notes increase on the long, juicy finish.
This flab-free pinot really stains the palate.” --91 points,
Stephen Tanzer
“Bright and jazzy, with chalky overtones to the raspberry and floral
flavors, finishing lively, with a sense of harmony as the finish lingers. Drink
now through 2016.”
