($24): Acacia specializes in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, producing several single vineyard bottlings of each. This one–not one of their single vineyards offerings, but rather a blend from several sites–should not be overlooked. Most Pinot Noir selling at this price can’t compare with this one for complexity and enjoyment. Acacia balances the upfront cherry-like fruitiness of Pinot Noir with a subtle–but apparent–dose of earthy and savory notes. The tannins are polished which means it’s a good choice for now. 90 Michael Apstein Apr 13, 2010
