2006 O’Connell O’Connell Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
14.2% alc., $43.
·
Showy black
cherry and black current aromas with a hint of sherry. A strange wine with stemmy fruit, oak, and medicinal
(iodine) flavors. Soft in the mouth with fine tannins. With air, port flavors emerge. Disappointing. ? bad, oxidized bottle.
