Castle 1997 Sangiacomo Vineyard Pinot Noir (Carneros)

Price $30

Sweet black cherries, with menthol and herb accents on the nose. Classic Pinot Noir flavors of sour cherries and cola on the palate. Not heavy, but well structured and balanced. Full tannins on the finish. Very promising. — W.E. (10/1/1999)

Raspberry, plum and chocolate flavors get a helping hand from fresh herbal notes, while the tail end is all black fruit, bitter chocolate and espresso. A bit of warning: This is sweet stuff, a thoroughly modern California wine. Editors’ Choice. — W.E. (10/1/2002)

Price $24

Time has not helped this vegetal wine, which smells and tastes of canned asparagus. Whatever fruit there was is largely gone. — S.H. (5/1/2005)
