Martinelli
Blue Slide Ridge Pinot Noir
Weekly Wednesday wine committee. This week we had 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 3 reds, 1 dessert. All tasted blind as normal.
Shame on me for not guessing this...it’s my favorite Pinot Vineyard! And I love any BSR ‘04s! Quite a bit of graham cracker and blueberry-blackberry compote here. Many guessed ‘90s Ridge zin. Great spicy, peppered and fruit driven finish.

Impressive depth, complexity and tremendously pure California Pinot Noir varietal character. A beautiful transparent ruby red color. A style many seem to chase but don't quite obtain the same balance.
