Wine of the Week!
Robert Sinskey 2005 
Los Carneros Pinot Noir $38
Drum roll…presenting The Wine Experience Wine of the Week. The envelope please.
It’s Robert Sinskey 2005 Los Carneros Pinot Noir and it will be on our table this Thanksgiving.
The Sinskey Pinot is a luscious mix of fruit and spice along with earth and acidity. You’ll love the balance on your taste buds. From the whiff of truffles when you sniff to red raspberry flavors and hints of cloves on your tongue when you sip to the silky feel when it slides down on the taste, it’s all Pinot.
And Sinskey’s devotion to organic methods adds the true sense of the terroir, or place, it comes from.
Sinskey wines are hand-crafted labors of love with limited production and are fully meant to enjoy as part of good food and good times together, just like a Thanksgiving dinner.
Robert Sinskey 2005 Los Carneros Pinot Noir is about thirty eight dollars. Special times together deserves special wines to share.
Pop the Cork™.

Winemaker's Notes and Comments
A gem-like ruby color emanates from the glass with distinctive clarity and brilliance. By the time the glass is lifted, the aroma meets you halfway with the declaration that it couldn’t be anything but Pinot Noir and breeds suspicion of a young Burgundy, but as the glass draws close, the effusive aromatics hint of newer worlds. The flavors and aromatics of the wine lean toward the exotic, reminiscent of a newly opened jar of five spice, backed by flats of raspberries, cherries and tilled earth. A sip wraps these aromas in a taut, silky texture that slowly evolves as the evening lingers over great food and inspired conversation.
Notes on our Wines of the Week, Recommendations, and Picks:
When you read our thoughts, please remember that you may think differently. A particular wine may be your favorite and not on our list. Well, don't stop buying it because of that. In fact, you may want to email us and let us know about it. These are our opinions but our FIRST recommendation is to go by your own palate.
A couple of other thoughts...first, prices are approximate. They'll vary. Second, different vintages mean different grapes and different tastes so our recommendation for a 2000 Merlot may not hold for 2001.
And lastly, we remind you to drink responsibly! Now, all that said, here is a summary of links to our suggestions. Find one (or more) and pop the cork!
