Mission Codename Run, don't walk
It is rare to find such a well-aged and beautifully balanced Pinot Noir.
Today’s 2007 Sand Hill Winery Durell Vineyard Pinot Noir really impressed our tasting panel with its balanced and elegant style. While some 2007 Pinots are beginning to show their age, today’s seems to be hitting its stride.
Today’s Durell Vineyard is perfectly positioned in the Carneros AVA, where some of California’s finest Pinot Noir is grown. This vineyard supplies some of California’s most prestigious wineries, including Kistler, Patz & Hall, Tor Kenward Family Wines, Robert Craig, Armida and more. While wines from some of these vineyards command ultra-premium prices, today’s wine is an absolute steal.
