  • 2004 Dehlinger Pinot Noir Estate - USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (12/20/2009)
    sweet red fruit, cola, indian spices (cardamom in particular), and rose water - bright, pure flavors and a long, smooth palate rounded out by fresh, vibrant acidity with a touch of heat to finish it off - lithe, graceful, nimble - Burgundy texture wrapped up in Sonoma flavor…
    perfect with my homemade cioppino (93 pts.)

Best pinot i’ve tasted in a while.

Scott,

We will be drinking these for Christmas. I think the 2004’s are asking to be consumed rather than cellaring them. Tasty morsels they are. Thanks for the notes.

Love the Tommy-D’s.

Nice note … this sounds rocking. Some of those 2004s are really hitting a nice stride right now.

Thanks for the note. I have yet to try any of my 04 Pinots from Dehlinger but it sounds like I need to dig some out.

If you don’t finish them, save them for me. I can then bring them to Offlines.
