Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

This wine is both extremely rich and super supple, with fine-grained, mouthfilling tannins, balanced oak and an intriguing dusty quality. The aromas are alluring and sophisticated, offering layers of raspberry, cranberry, blueberry, sassafras, milk chocolate, cinnamon, clove and cassis. A classic expression of Hyde vineyard—powerful, elegant and intricate.

Professional Ratings

95 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2009 Pinot Noir Hyde Vineyard had 15% whole-clusters and 14.2% alcohol, which was lower than the two previous wines. The wine has a dense ruby/plum color to the rim, a killer nose of red and black fruits, along with foresty notes, white flowers and spice. It was long, rich, full-bodied, opulent and a terrific example of Pinot Noir. This had the same clonal mix as the 2008. This is a younger, deeper wine than the 2008 and seems to have at least another decade of aging potential.
91 Wine Spectator
This firm, tight Pinot offers vivid blackberry, spice, mineral and cedar notes. Full-bodied and concentrated, with a supple, graceful finish.

Carneros Pinot Noir

View all products

As early as the 1970s Carneros became known as a source of terrific Pinot Noir, and was one of the first California regions to gain such a reputation. The combination of sunny days, cooling fog and thin clay soils are tailor-made for the variety. Another factor in Pinot Noir’s prominent place here is vintners’ willingness to experiment widely. The history of the grape in Carneros is marked by continuous research into clonal variations, viticultural techniques and site selection. Careful evaluation over time has revealed a signature flavor profile as well. Complex aromas and flavors of cherry, red berry, spice, earth and cola appear time and again in Carneros Pinot Noir. To this day the appellation remains one of California’s standard bearers for the variety.
