TN: 2004 David Bruce Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast (USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast)

  • 2004 David Bruce Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast - USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast (8/13/2009)
    I really wanted to like this wine but, alas, it was not to be. The nose is okay, a little pruney with sour, sour cherry. Medium bodied with stewed fruits, some tannins and a whole buttload of really overwhelming tartness. It was better with food that cut through the tart but never was more than okay. I was clinging to hope on night two but in fact the bracingly sour finish was even worse. Perhaps it will work with the pork tenderloin with lingenberry sauce though I’m not optimistic. Oh well. (83 pts.)
