Melville Vineyard Pinot Noir 2005

This Pinot Noir (the t in Pinot is silent) is delectable. A true shining star. The aromatic treat starts with strong notes of red, and screams 'drink the entire bottle buddy'. Succumbing to the temptation you will discover a blissful elegance as this masterpiece flows through your body. Invigorating your inner youth, enchanting your inner sommelier, and appeasing your inner drunkard with the 16.0% alcohol by volume. This reasonably priced bottle of happiness would truly be a delight on any occasion. Additionally the surgeon general declares consumption of such a magnificent beverage could be detrimental to the growth of a child, pregnant women be warned. — 8 years ago

Block M 115 Pinot Noir 2012

Delectable is identifying this incorrectly, it is the Block M 115 clone, which is quite different for the Santa Rita Hills Pinot. This is an amazing wine with a nose that is deep and complex, with cherries and cranberries and clover and a palate that is long and velvety. Best wine I've had out of the central coast. What a Thursday night! — 9 years ago

I learned after the first bottle this big California Pinot needs at least an hour's decanting before it hits your lips. Much more well-balanced with excellent earth and cherry notes. — 8 years ago

Block M Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2014

Mount Carmel Pinot Noir 2005

Wow. Absolutely terrific offering from Brewer-Clifton. At 11 years, this has an incredible nose of spiced rhubarb, dried strawberries, and a sagebrush undertone that adds terrific complexity. Has the classic spice one picks up from the Melville Verna's pinot, but is much more subdued and integrated into the wine, adding to its complexity. Wonderfully balanced, this wine probably has several more years of life left but is drinking beautifully right now. Probably the best Brewer-Clifton I've had. — 8 years ago
