Tony Soter is at the top of his game, consistently turning out wines that outperform the competition. His '03 Pinot isn't quite as monumental as the '02 Heirloom, but is a fabulous wine, fresh and complex, utterly drinkable now but with a probable life ahead. It's dry and tart in beef bouillon, cherry tomato flavors, with a sweet cherry-raspberry and spicy oak edge, and a transparent, elegant quality. Best now through 2008.
