Went to a tasting and they were featuring Chalk Hill, winery now owned by Bill Foley, of Foley Family Wines, who continues the traditions that Fred Furth, who founded CH in 1972. Had this ‘16 about a year ago. Rich deep straw color with aromas of stone and tropical fruits and citrus notes. On the palate ripe apple, sweet melon and lemon flavors with gentle vanilla toasty oak. Well balanced on lingering finish ending with oak and mineral notes. Aged well. Tasting Sample. — 7 years ago

Really big full Pinot in a detonate Cali style. Lacks some acidity and clocks in at 14.5% so not a great food friendly wine but makes a great cocktail. Cheers. — 10 years ago
Light body - unusual "meaty" taste - vaguely reminiscent of a lesser Pommard — 10 years ago

16.5/20 Аромат малины, вишни, хлебной корочки и легким оттенком кофе. Легкое тело, высокая кислотность довольно интенсивные, но гладкие по текстуре танины. Ягодно-кофейное во вкусе. Приятное и легкое, но не легкомысленное вино. #capewine2018 — 7 years ago

17+/20 (92+/100) Аромат чернослива, черешни, шоколада и легкой нотой кожи. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и молодыми, но не грубыми танинами. Отлично! #capewine2018 — 7 years ago

A full bodied Pinot Noir from the Santa Rita Hills. Beautiful deep garnet color in the glass. Very aromatic with notes of raspberry, blackberry and spice. Great tastes of blackberry, raspberry and cinnamon backed by solid tannins and a nice acidic backbone. — 10 years ago

Wow... so much eucalyptus, everywhere in this wine. This guy is ready to go, and absolutely delicious out of a mag. Believe this was a Foley production in 2000. — 7 years ago
