Brophy Clark Sta. Rita Hills Pinot 2005

I opened up this one tonight with dinner and it was a hit at our house. Wow, it's a big, bold Pinot with lots of berries, blackberries to be precise, and a nice dry finish. I will give this one a 91/100 rating and a best buy. My local retailer sells this for $17.99/bottle, which is incredible for this quality of Pinot. I will need to pick up more at this price.

John Clark and his wife, Kelley Brophy Clark teamed up to make this wine and others from the Central Coast. They live in Nipomo, CA and have access to some great grapes from the Central Coast of California, and make small amounts of nice wine, Pinots, Syrahs and Zinfandels. Their website is here.
