De Coelo 2007 Terra Neuma Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $69
Very rich and layered, a complex young Pinot Noir that will benefit from cellaring. It’s silky, dry and fantastically fruity, with red cherry pie, red currant, licorice, cola, bacon, vanilla and sandalwood flavors that finish in a swirl of dusty spices. Wonderful now, with an edge of tannins, and should develop bottle complexity through 2013. From Benziger.

De Coelo 2007 Quintus Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $69
There’s a tannic toughness to this wine that suggests cellaring, which should be no problem because it’s so rich. Offers masses of cherries, currants, cola, pomegranates, bacon, licorice and smoky sandalwood that finish dry and spicy. Great job from Benziger, and should slowly develop complexity through 2013.

De Coelo 2009 Terra Neuma Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- Cellar Selection
- $69
An interesting and even a bold wine that will challenge diehard California Pinot lovers. The wine is quite low in alcohol and exceptionally silky and light in the mouth, with an elegant feeling. It’s strongly extracted in raspberry fruit, and has lots of sharp, zingy acidity. Doesn’t feel knit together at all, but could be a sleeper. Try aging until 2015.

De Coelo 2009 Quintus Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $75
Lots to like in this dry, silky Pinot Noir. Easy to imagine drinking it with a nice steak with mushrooms. It’s rich in cherry, cola, mushroom and beef teriaki flavors. A little soft, and not an ager, but fine now.
