Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
The finest offering, the 2009 Pinot Noir Joli Coeur possesses shocking density as well as abundant tannin. Hints of fresh porcini mushrooms, bouquet garni, meat juices, black raspberries, cherries and plums are found in this complex yet structured, tannic wine. It is best cellared for 3-4 years and should drink well over the following 10-15+. This exceptional group of wines is limited in quantity (from a low of 125 cases to a high of 400+ cases for several of the Chardonnays) cuvees.Additional Information

It is also considered the most diverse, food-friendly wine |
