100 points Robert Parker: "The compelling 2012 Pinot Noir Ma Danseuse (1,480 cases) is even better than the 2013. Notes of lead pencil shavings, DRC-like forest floor, black raspberry, blackcurrant, Asian plum sauce, rose petal and sweet cherry characteristics are found in this spectacular, multidimensional, prodigious Pinot Noir that should drink well for 10-15+ years. The clonal material probably came from one of the DRC vineyards, so it is not surprising that. in this cool climate, with the great fruit purity California can achieve, there is a DRC-like resemblance. (Dec 2014)"
Producer notes: "Ma Danseuse charms with its ‘Jeu de Couleur’ of red ruby color and red-crimson color. The nose exhibits a bouquet of roses, raspberry, Griotte cherry, strawberry, forest floor and a subtle note of violet. Delicate, fragrant, complete and refined, 2012 Ma Danseuse has in the palate a wonderful concentration of red fruits, red rose blossoms, with subtle notes of Asian spices and pheasant fur, which embraces a silky texture and lingering aromatic finish. It will continue to express its potential for two decades. 100% naturally fermented using native yeasts. Barrel aged 16 months in French oak (50% new). Alcohol 15.1%."
