Calera Selleck Vineyard Mount Harlan Pinot Noir 2000

Made from yields of one ton of fruit per acre (15 hectoliters per hectare), this saturated ruby-colored 2000 boasts aromas of celery seed, earth, cloves, spice, and red fruits. Structured, dense, powerful, and muscular, with plenty of meat on its bones, it has more in common with a Jensen cuvee than its two siblings. Still closed, with obvious spiciness as well as depth, give it 1-3 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following 12-15 years. Drink date: 2004-2018. Score – 90.
