Gary's Vineyard Pinot Noir

Five single-vineyard CA Pinots vs 5 Burgs: Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanee + three 1er Crus Beaunes. All 2005s. Rob Jensen, owner, and Sue Ryan, lead wine educator at Testarossa joined our group for the tasting. Great wine, meaty

Nice richness with aromas of ripe tropical fruit notes of buttered toast and a nice minerality flinty note nice acidity here. Most excellent

A very nice Pinot. A fruit forward start with hints of spice, and notes of cherry and raspberry. There is something about this that makes it special, maybe it’s how smooth it is or how the fruits blend together to create a unique flavor.

Best wine. Very smooth.

Happy Fireday.

The perennial favorite. Yummy.

Very good pinot and very California lol

One of our favorite Testatossa wines. This one is from the Gary Pisoni vineyard in Santa Lucia. Consistently good year after year.

Not usually a Pinot girl because I find them a bit too light. This one has a nice balanced richness to it, more depth than expected. Really enjoyable.

Gary's is always one of the best from TR. Deep and rich Pinot, great finish.
