The 2007 Pinot Noir Mount Carmel cuts a stylistic path between the rich fruit-driven Melville and the more earthy barnyardy terroir-driven Clos Pepe. The Mount Carmel offers plenty of blue and red fruits intermixed with hints of smoke roasted herbs earth pomegranate and underbrush. The sweetness of the tannins beautiful full-bodied mouthfeel and good acidity all reflect another brilliant Pinot Noir from this exceptionally talented duo. It should drink well for 10-15 years. 95+ points
