The Wine Enthusiast awards Pinot Noir 88 points
88pts. - Zina Hyde Cunningham 2005 Reserve
Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley); $50.
Made in a leaner, more elegant style that emphasizes
restraint, the '05 Reserve has a mineral and
rhubarb tartness, and is very dry. Could use a little
more ripeness, but is very sleek and streamlined.
Probably at its best now. -S.H.
