Blind tasting of nine Rochioli single vineyard Pinots, three each from 2000, 2004 and 2006. Could not believe this was the 2000. Some (good IMHO) bret and powerful, I guessed wrongly that it was one of the younger ones.

Enjoyed the West Block two weeks ago. The East Block was vibrant, fruit forward and tannins that were still developing. Definitely the pick between the two. Can be enjoyed now and years to come.

Very smooth 2000 Russian River Pinot. Very dark with an almost carbonated feel. Raspberry and earth. Popped and poured and enjoyed immediately.
