Bouchaine, Carneros (California) Pinot Noir 2005

($30): The cool Carneros region spans the southern ends of the Napa and Sonoma Valleys and is well suited for Pinot Noir, a variety that thrives in cooler climes.  Bouchaine’s is a delightful combination of red fruit-strawberry, raspberry-like flavors–with just enough earthiness to keep it interesting. 90 Michael Apstein May 15, 2007
