Rex Goliath Central Coast Pinot Noir 2002
The Rex Goliath web site has this charming quote, attributed to an anonymous winemaker, about pinot noirs: "Drinking a fine Pinot Noir... is like the baby Jesus sliding down the back of your gullet in velvet pantaloons."
I just drank the last sip of this bottle with deep regret, so I think I'll have to get another.
Vanilla. Prunes. Raisins. Milk chocolate. Figs. A bit of acrid sharpness (in a pleasant way, as a nice counterbalance to the smoothness of many of the other flavors). Nice mouthfeel, medium-bodied syrupy. A little mint in the finish.
This wine comforted me while it held my attention. Great all by itself.
