Our second go around with this Monopoly (meaning we are the only winery to produce a Pinot from this sight)! I am happy to say that as great as the 2006 was this is a hair better. The reason is not the yield because we never get much here; it's because of the addition of the stems. The 2006 was completely destemmed but the 2007 is 100% included. This has improved the wine and broadened its dimensions. Beautiful dark fruit, shale, and minerality. White flowers, lifting from a great noise that includes soy, and a true old word animal fragrance. The mouth feel is amazing and the finish is to die for. Unbelievable balance and tremendous complexity will excite the senses! This is from a very shallow soil site that looks barren and desolate but that’s what Pinot yearns for and put in the right climate, in the best of farmers care, you are rewarded with this sleeping giant.
