Scott Family Estate, Arroyo Seco (Monterey County, California) Pinot Noir 2008

($39):  This lovely California Pinot Noir has plenty of upfront bright fresh fruit–almost candied–flavors.  But in addition, it delivers whiff of complementing leafy delicacy.  Not a Burgundy, nor should it be, it’s a true reflection of Pinot Noir in Monterey County. 88 Michael Apstein Apr 5, 2011
