Item Description
2011 Occidental Cuvee Elizabeth Bodega Headlands . 97 Points - Vinous.
The wines featured in the Abrams Cellar collection were specially curated by Michela Abrams in loving memory of her husband Alan J. Abrams who served as the Chairman of SI's auction Wine Committee for several years. The proceeds from tonight's wine auction will benefit a scholarship fund in Alan's name to honor his many years of service to the SI Community.
Item Special Note
Whereas the Cuvée Catherine is built on fruit, the 2011 Pinot Noir Bodega Headlands Cuvée Elizabeth is a much more inward, structured wine. Here the flavors are bright, precise and endowed with considerable energy. Cranberry, pomegranate, crushed rocks, rose petals and savory herbs are all supported by veins of underlying acidity and minerality that should allow the 2011 to develop beautifully in bottle. All of the 2011 Pinots have really blossomed over the last year, but none to the extent of the Cuvée Elizabeth, which today is stunning.
