The Occidental Bodega Headlands Vineyard Cuvee Elizabeth Pinot Noir 2011 is a single-vineyard red wine from the Sonoma Coast AVA in California, produced by Occidental Wines, the project of renowned winemaker Steve Kistler. This wine is sourced exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes cultivated in the Bodega Headlands Vineyard, an elevation-driven site near the Pacific Ocean, featuring marine sediment and fractured sandstone soils. The Cuvee Elizabeth designation focuses on a block from the 2001 planting, utilising carefully selected massale cuttings from Grand Cru vineyards in Vosne-Romanée, ensuring a refined expression of terroir.
94 Vinous
Bright violet color. High-pitched red berry and blood orange aromas are complicated by suggestions of Asian spices and smoky minerals. Intense raspberry and bitter cherry flavors pick up a zesty mineral quality with air, along with a hint of cola. A deft blend of power and energy that finishes very long, with strong mineral cut and gentle tannic grip. Very nicely balanced and energetic, with the structure to age. These are the first releases from Steve Kistler's new, personal project and come from his estate vineyard. (JR)Stephen Tanzer1st May 2014
