Okay, this was the best wine of the group by quite a margin. It was also the most expensive at $115 per bottle.
What made this special? First the nose was a beautiful fragrant blend of sweet strawberry and blackberry. The nose was special. Then it was followed by a wonderful fresh burst of fruit on the tongue, followed by a great slightly tart slightly sweet finish. The finish was lovely. Everything one looks for in a fine pinot from France. The fruit the fine wine making, structure, taste the works.
Definitely and easily 1st of the 9 wines.
North Berkeley Imports has the scoop on the La Pousse the winery.
And that concludes the Beltramo's tasting notes.
