Rhys Vineyards Pinot Noir Alpine Vineyard - 2006 (750ml) Hermitage It sports a deep purple-colorSaturated red. Strawberry and raspberry aromas are complicated by exotic Asian spices and gain sweetness with air. Sexy stuff, with deep, pure red and dark berry flavors, seamless texture and excellent finishing clarity. Leaves a lingering cherry skin note behind. You could drink this now for its suave fruit, but there's ample depth to reward another five plus years of patience. Josh Raynolds Vinous 92 points 90 points Robert Parker The Rhys 2006
