great whiskey writer Michael Jackson proclaimed it "remarkably long and complex"

which protects the vineyards from wind and weather

a Pinot Noir

This objective is remarkably achieved in 2010

and it matures the wine faster

2013 Talbott Kali Hart, Chardonnay Santa Lucia Highland Pinot Gris great whiskey writer Michael JacksonLovely scent of fresh pear and melon, with a deeper slightly sweet touch. Juicy and rich fruit flavor with notes of citrus and a long slightly bitter and spicy aftertaste. The wine's balance between fullness and refined taste makes it suitable for heartier dishes such as fish and chicken dishes, but can also be enjoyed alone. Stephen Tanzer 89 points
