06 Husch Anderson Valley Pinot Noir

Brilliant aromas of Bing cherries and cola spark the nose on this Anderson Valley treat. Raspberries and a hint of oaken vanilla bring this Pinot to life. As most of my follows can tell, I am very partial to Pinots from this region. I have tried many and have not been disappointed in any of them. This Husch is no exception. Drinks well and has cellar potential. I would recommend decanting this wine for at least an hour prior to serving. It grew and grew in flavor over time. My only hesitation is the price on this one. At $25-$30 per bottle...may be better quality Pinots from Anderson Valley in that range. I would recommend purchasing 4 bottles and try one a year over the next 4 years to see how the wine grows over time.


I rate this wine 6.95 BigBecks out of 10.
