Montinore 2002 Winemaker’s Reserve Pinot Noir

Price $19

The reserve is a bigger version of the regular Pinot, with more heat, more tannin, more bite. Sharp, hot and acidic, with green tannins that seem to thin out the finish. — P.G. (11/15/2005)

Montinore 2004 Graham’s Block 7 Pinot Noir

Price $32

Funky, animal smells greet you, followed by bark, stem and root. Not a pretty nose by any means. The wine follows hard, tough, stemmy and chewy. It’s hard to imagine a more charmless bottle in this price range. — P.G. (4/1/2007)

points

Montinore 2004 Pinot Gris

Price $10

This winery’s Pinot Gris always has a fair amount of color, but sometimes it drifts over from straw to tawny gold, right on the edge of oxidation. Here there is a vegetal/grassy tone that dominates; missing is the fresh pear fruit. — P.G. (11/15/2005)

Montinore 2000 Pinot Noir

Price $12

— W.E. (10/1/2002)

Montinore 2000 Müller-Thurgau

Online Exclusive

Price $7

Cheese, milkweed and straw make for an unattractive nose, while the mouth is overtly sweet as if made from dried and candied mango and pineapple. The finish fades fast while leaving behind a residue left that isn’t that pleasant. — M.S. (8/1/2003)
