Blackstone Winery Pinot Noir 2002

Santa Lucia Highlands, Monterey County, Central Coast, California, United StatesMade from the Dijon clone 777 the Blackstone shows licorice, compost, Bing cherry and compote notes with some smokiness. Dry, slightly lean, high acid palate. Rootsy, sour cherry, sour plum flavours with a spicy, smoky finish. Tart style, very cool climate pinot. Still will require some work but quite a good start.Tasted: 24 February 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
