    In warmer years this vineyard, in the far western part of Paso Robles, can produce splendid Pinot Noir. But 2011 was shockingly cold, and this wine suffered as a result. It has tart acidity and vegetal, mushroomy notes that the toasty oak can't cover.

    The chocolate and black-cherry jam flavors are a little too heavy and rich, lacking zest and complexity. But there's no denying this Pinot is delicious to drink now.

    So acidic, it's almost sour, and the cherry and cranberry fruit isn't rich enough to offset that tartness. As a result, it feels unbalanced and uncomfortable.
