2007 Weber Vineyard Pinot Noir

Wine Type: Older Vintages  

Ahhhhh…Weber: Weber is spice and everything nice.

That’s what I always think of whenever I taste this wine. I have worked with this vineyard almost every year since 1994 and still can’t get enough. Arthur & Vivian
Weber first planted their vineyard back in 1974 and I feel honored to get some of this precious fruit. We get the top of Blocks 5 and 7, which just fall off the top of the
vineyard to the east. These blocks are Pommard clone planted on its own roots in 1985.

The characteristic spiciness must linger in the soil here, because it’s always in the wine. This year think of plum tart with a hint of nutmeg, then seasoned ground almonds and hazelnuts roasted with tons of butter. This is as good as it gets in New World Pinot Noir and stands up with the best in the Whole World.
