2009 Melville pinot noir 3,234 bottles.
The Melville family planted this windswept mesa in 1997 to clones 114 and 115. The clay-loam soil,
cold maritime influence and conscientious farming consistently deliver a wine which harmoniously offers
richness, power, structure and grace.
Red rose petal, boysenberry and sandalwood aromas followed by flavors of blackberry, black walnut and dried fig.
Complete, regal and polished mouthfeel demonstrating a confident display of place.

93 Points ロバート・パーカーのワイン・アドヴォケイト:
"The 2009 Pinot Noir Melville reveals a powerful fleshy personality close in style to the Cargasacchi. It shows marvelous density and a brooding inner darkness that is hard to fully capture with words. The wine turns a bit more radiant on the expressive finish. This parcel at Melville is planted with the 114 and 115 clones Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019.
No one has done more to carry the banner for the Santa Rita Hills than Greg Brewer and Steve Clifton. Both together at Brewer-Clifton and separately in their other projects, Brewer and Clifton consistently deliver delicious wines that are also deeply thought provoking with regards to the potential these vineyard sites hold. The Pinots in particular are compelling. The 2009 Pinots saw a seven day cold soak and fermentations that lasted a total of 35-40 days, with 100% stems." (Wine Advocate #196 Aug 2011 Antonio Galloni Drink: 2012 - 2019)
94 Points インターナショナルワインセラー(Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar):
"Bright red. Intensely perfumed bouquet offers red fruit and floral scents, along with notes of star anise, cinnamon and smoky minerals. Bright and energetic in the mouth, with excellent clarity and power to its strawberry and raspberry preserve flavors. Tangy acidity adds lift and bite to the very long, sweet, spice-accented finish. I really like this wine's graceful, balanced character." - Stephen Tanzer (October 2011)
