Alcina Cellars

Reviews

  • Wine Spectator, Alcina Cellars, 2002 Pinot Noir, Pisoni Vineyard
    Exotic spicy sandalwood aromatics, hints of rose petal and nutmeg and layers of black cherry, blackberry and wild berry fruit, ending with a rich spicy aftertaste.
  • Wine Spectator, Alcina Cellars, 2003 Pinot Noir, Sangiacomo Vineyard
    Aromas of smoky, toasty oak fold in nicely with ripe, fleshy black cherry and wild berry. Impressive for its graceful, supple texture and a finish of fruit and spicy nutmeg notes.
  • Pinot Report, Alcina Cellars, 2002 Pinot Noir, Pisoni Vineyard
    Deep ruby purple color, concentrated, complex aromas of black plum, spice ad pine needle notes on the nose, big, deep and full of flavors, lots of black plum, smoky bacon and spice with moderate tannin and sweet oak; great structure and balance; long finish. This is a deep, complex and really well balanced wine.
  • Pinot Report, Alcina Cellars, 2003 Pinot Noir, Sangiacomo Vineyard
    Deep purple ruby color; spicy with aromas of cherry, cinnamon and some earthy notes; bright, juicy cherry flavors with spicy, sweet oak undertones; good structure and well balanced; long finish. This Pinot is a deep and delicious wine from a cool climate vineyard owned by the Sangiacomo family.
  • Wine Spectator, Alcina Cellars, 2003 Syrah, Mendocino County, Gabrielli Vineyard
    Delicious, with rich crushed blackberry, pepper, black cherry and wild berry fruit supported by firm, ripe tannins. Drink now through 2010.
