STEVEN TANZER'S INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR, May/June 2009
93 points
“Deep, bright ruby. A complex bouquet displays scents of black raspberry, kirsch, potpourri and smoky minerals. Pliant red and dark berry flavors are framed by silky tannins and pick up a deeper cola quality with air. The dark berry notes dominate the impressively pure and seductively sweet finish. I wouldn't hesitate to drink this now, but expect that it will reward another five years or so of patience. ”

THE WINE ADVOCATE #180, December 2008

“Sussman also produces a Pinot Noir from the Savoy Vineyard. The 2007 Pinot Noir Savoy Vineyard seems very unformed, with sappy red fruits and pomegranates, noticeable tannins, but beautiful texture, depth, and ripeness. The wine just needs more time, and I think should turn out to be outstanding. It should be drunk in the first 5–8 years of life.” — Robert Parker

“A ripe red berry fruit and menthol-suffused nose merges into rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that also possess excellent depth and a moderately robust character as the tannins are firm without being aggressive, all wrapped in a noticeably warm finish even when the appropriate serving temperature is properly maintained. I like the depth and size but the warmth is enough where it compromises the overall sense of balance just enough to prevent the Savoy from ascending to the next level. ” — Allen Meadows

“Medium-deep ruby color; deep, rich, earthy, dusty cherry aromas with herbs and mineral notes; big, full dusty cherry flavors with complex herbal, earthy and mineral notes; great structure and balance; long finish. Incredibly nuanced and complex Pinot that begins to open up with a good hour of air. So much potential here and so much to enjoy right now.”— Gregory Walter
