this block-grown pinot from the estate vineyard, in the heart of the cool green valley, shows the signature marimar style of tight acidity, dryness, silky elegance and red fruit. it's not a big, fat, blockbuster pinot, but a leaner, more masculine style. the raspberry, cherry, red currant and sandalwood flavors should hold up well to the aging process. now–2013, at least.
