    Talley 2008 Stone Corral Vineyard Pinot Noir (Edna Valley)

    Talley has struggled with the acidity on this wine for years. Sometimes it's too soft. This '08, while very good, with a degree of complexity especially in the tannins, is too aggressive. The acidity feels unnatural, giving the wine the taste of raspberry sour candy.
