Capitello 2005 Pinot Noir

  1. $35
This is a light, leafy wine, with tannins that taste of green tea and leave a sensation of astringency long after the wine is swallowed. Sounds like Burgundy! In a world where so many Oregon wineries are making Pinot Noir that is superripe, extracted and alcoholic, this shows why the Burgundy comparison is still valid.  — P.G.  (4/1/2008)

Capitello 2006 Pinot Gris

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $18
This Pinot Gris offers a distinctive mix of flavors, with apple, pear, pink grapefruit and sweet Meyer lemon all in the tangle of fruit. It’s sappy and soft, but runs afoul of some mousy, bacterial flavors in the finish. Except for that, it would score much better.  — P.G.  (4/1/2008)
