2009 Dehlinger Pinot Noir Altamont Vineyard Old Vines

"The 2009 Pinot Noir Altamont Vineyard Old Vines is a gorgeous wine. Layers of beautifully articulated red fruit, flowers and spices meld together in this seamless, intensely perfumed Pinot Noir. The 2009 stands out for its gorgeous length and polished finish. Sweet candied and floral notes linger on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.
I tasted a large number of wines with Tom and Eva Dehlinger, including several older wines, all of which have held up beautifully. These remain some of the most fairly priced wines in California. Tom Dehlinger describes 2009 as a very cool Pinot vintage. Dehlinger reports that yields in 2009 are down approximately 40% because of cold weather before and during bloom. The Pinot ripened evenly, and the harvest started on September 4 as opposed to late August, which is more typical in these sites, once known for their similarly early-maturing apples. In 2009 Dehlinger bottled his High Plains Pinot separately rather than blending it into the Altamont, which is frequently the case, as it is again in 2010. Rains during the harvest were trickier for the later-ripening Syrah, which wasn’t picked until October 20. Elegance and freshness are the hallmarks of the 2009 Syrahs, which stand in stark contrast to the riper, more concentrated 2008s. Vintage 2010 is another story completely. The Pinot harvest was even later than in 2009, and didn’t get started until September 22. In 2009 Dehlinger has several new wines, including a Zinfandel. Dehlinger made Zinfandel from 1975 to 1983. When the opportunity arose to purchase high-quality Zinfandel and Petit Sirah, Dehlinger decided it was time to take the plunge once again."

"Pure, ripe plum, blueberry and wild berry flavors are supple and graceful, delicate and detailed. This is most impressive on the finish where the flavors are fresh and lively. Drink now through 2018. 325 cases made. –JL"

"Bright ruby. Perfumed, floral-accented dark berry and cherry aromas are brightened by zesty minerality. Pliant, expansive black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors show excellent clarity and vivacity. No rough edges here. Finishes with supple tannins and impressive floral persistence. "
