Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

A spectacular effort, the 2010 Pinot Noir La Caprice is one of the most complex Pinots I have ever smelled. Resembling a great grand cru from the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti, it offers up aromas of rose petals, wild strawberries, black raspberries, forest floor and Chinese black tea. This full-bodied, rich Pinot has an undeniable Cote de Nuits personality as well as an amazing finish. Production of this profound Pinot was 730 cases. It should drink well for 10+ years. - Robert Parker (12/2013)

Bright ruby-red. Fresh raspberry and cherry aromas are complicated by star anise, cinnamon and rose oil. Fleshy and smooth on entry, then tighter in the mid-palate, offering tangy red fruit flavors and a hint of bitter chocolate. Shows a suave floral quality on the finish, which clings with impressive tenacity.- Stephen Tanzer (05/2012)
