About

Ulises Valdez is a highly-skilled grower who shares our passion and dedication to excellence in the vineyard. His Laguna Ranch Vineyard shows its potential for intensity and complexity with the 2006 vintage. Opening with a nose of violets and roasted coffee, it offers a well-delineated palate of dark fruits and cola, overlaid with toffee and allspice. Ripe, focused tannins and fine acidity round out this sophisticated pinot noir whose finish goes on and on.

Winemaker's Notes
Our second release from Lindsay Estate Vineyard is a richly structured, stylish and expressive offering. Deep plum color and bright aromas of boysenberry and anise are an intriguing preview to a velvety palate of dark red berries, pomegranate, cola and clove. Earthy notes harmonize with firm, smooth tannins to round out the finish of this stately, cellar-worthy pinot noir. Alcohol 14.8%

Review

"Exhibits the deepest ruby color as well as more complexity in its pomegranate, sweet cherry, meaty, smoked game, forest floor, and herbal-scented bouquet. It should be consumed over the next 4-5 years."
