The Barda-Chacra-2009 $? - If you're familar, is their "lowest" tier, or youngest vines of their 3 pinots. It was highly anticipated by me, but was and is still very very ripe. Acidulated. Smelling of very ripe Straw, Cherry and even Date. Soft and fleshy, almost velvety in the mouth. Lush for a Pinot I expected to be super lean and acidic...
Slutty. Like Etude Heirloom...?
About Me
- Eric C. Maczko
- I've been part of Pine Ridge Winery's Culinary Staff for 7 years. In 2003 I took over the Executive Chef Position and have been pairing food and wine together in a creative environment every day since. I am a Certified Sommelier through The Court of Master Sommeliers and hope to gain my Advanced in the coming year. My love of wine, food and literature are the fuel behind this little site and sharing my experience is my gift. Each year I take a little time to craft my own wine, so as to humble myself. It is a pleasure to sample the hard work and dedication of these so many talented wine professionals.
