"Woodbridge’s Midas touch with Cabernet Sauvignon also extends to his Pinot Noirs. He makes three of them – two from the Sonoma Coast and one from the Southern Napa Valley site called Stanley Ranch that was often used by Berringer. The 2013s are all brilliantly packaged with a gorgeous picture of a cherry pie on the label. Another huge success, is the somewhat weirdly named 2013 Cherry Pie Pinot Noir Huckleberry Snodgrass. This tips the scales at a whopping 15.5% natural alcohol, but shows unbelievably rich, ripe, cherry liqueur-like notes, has a medium-dark ruby/purple color, beautiful texture, ripeness and length. It is as sexy as Pinot Noir can get, so don’t be scared off by the relatively lofty alcohol, because there is not a bit of heat or hotness to the wine’s smell or taste. . ."
