Today the tasting room was offering the following wines for the tasting:
2006 Novitiate Pinot Noir Rose, a new release
2005 Castello Chardonnay, which was a nice Chardonnay
2004 Schultze Family Vineyard Pinot Noir, a very nice Pinot, with solid fruit and pepper, easy to drink.
2005 Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir, I really liked this Pinot, full of fruit and spice, but balanced and easy to drink.
2004 La Cruz Vineyard Pinot Noir, I did not like this one as well as the others due to the finish.
2001 Garys' Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sold Out), a nice Pinot, still had some spunk after several years of aging, plenty of fruit.
Testarossa will be an interesting winery to watch, since they have played a role in developing markets for several vineyards along the California Coast with their low production special vineyard wines. It seems like vineyards that are teaming with the Jensens at Testarossa can try to ride the momentum from this very popular small production winery.
