Dear Wine Lover,
Our tiny allotment of new releases from Tantara have just arrived! Here is what Robert Parker's latest issue of The Wine Advocate has to say about them.
2004 Tantara Rio Vista Vyd. Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir, 105 Cases Produced $45.00 Buy Six $39.99
Creamy (but well-integrated) oak is present in the 2004 Pinot Noir Rio Vista Vineyard. Its dark plum/blue/purple color is followed by aromas of black currants, blackberries, and black cherries intermixed with licorice, smoke, and spice. Rich and concentrated, it pushes ripeness to the limit, but there is no hint of prunes or raisins. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.
2004 Tantara Solomon Hills Vyd. Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir, 156 Cases Produced $45.00 Buy Six $39.99
The seductive, impressively ripe 2004 Pinot Noir Solomon Hills Vineyard exhibits notions of strawberry jam, black cherries, cola, and earth. With a sweet attack, rich, heady, full-bodied flavors, and a long, velvety finish, it should drink well for 4-5 years.
2004 Tantara Bien Nacido Vyd. Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay, 118 Cases Produced Was $33.00 Buy Six $29.99
Readers looking for more buttery, exotic tropical fruits as well as hints of popcorn and caramel should check out the 2004 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard. It is a rich, fruit-forward, deep white to consume over the next year.
