Robert Parker 95 Points : “The 2019 Pinot Noir Widdoes Vineyard is made from 45-year-old Martini clone vines dry-farmed in Goldridge soils and was aged 11 months in 30% new French oak. Medium ruby, it’s deeply scented and spicy, with cranberry and rhubarb fruits plus notes of blood orange, earth, cardamom and anise. The full-bodied palate is lush, silky and layered with a kaleidoscope of spicy accents and a long, juicy finish. Sean Capiaux has been experimenting with whole clusters and stems, and this iteration of Widdoes was made with about 10% to 15% of them. 300 cases were made..”
Sean Capiiaux Winemaker: “A dark blue/purple color with an almost opaque center radiates out to the rim with a deep purple hue. Classic Russian River cherry cola, sweet oak and dark red fruits on the nose extending to the palate: plum, cherry cobbler and dark currant fruit. Medium weight with good tannins for ageing and a rich finish.”
