2008 Rhys Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard- USA, California, North Coast, Anderson Valley (5/30/2014)
There is a broodiness to this wine that starts to show itself after a 3 hour decant. While, I’m not sure this will get any better, there is no need to drink these up. (91 pts.)
Dale,
I enjoyed this the other night, and posted of positive comment on an '09 Bearwallow thread. I was surprised at several negative reports that followed. Maybe not the best vintage, but still a really enjoyable wine in my book. Glad to see I’m not alone.
Cheers,
Warren
I opened a bottle back in January and thought it was very nice. I wasn’t expecting much based on other notes and the fact this was the 1st vintage after Kevin purchased the vineyard and the vines had not received any attention from the Rhys team. However, I was very pleasantly surprised.
