Baxter 2007 Run Dog Vineyard Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
An exotic Pinot of a type usually limited to Anderson Valley. It’s marked as much by gamy, mushroom and forest floor notes as by raspberries, cherries and red currants, with notes of licorice and pepper. Drily crisp and elegantly constructed, this complex young wine should develop for 4–6 years.

A fresh, vibrant but tight young Pinot Noir. It’s rich in wild raspberry, cherry and cola flavors, enhanced with spicy oak, and firm in acidity and tannins. Should be cellared for a good 3–5 years.

Baxter 2004 Toulouse Vineyard Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley)
- $45
The grapes are clones 777 and 115, and the wine shows those ultrapure, intense Dijon flavors of cherries, raspberries, cola, cinnamon and vanilla. With no new oak, the fruit really stars in this silky, delicious wine.

Baxter 2004 Oppenlander Vineyard Pinot Noir (Mendocino)
- $45
Northwest of the Anderson Valley, from an area that may someday be known as Mendocino Coast, comes this slightly rustic Pinot. The berry-cherry fruit has edges of tobacco, dill, tea, hay and spice, and the finish is fairly tannic.
