Fulcrum Pinot Top Scorer in New Wine Spectator
When you're keeping company with Foxen "Sea Smoke Vineyard" and Peter Michael "Pisoni Vineyard" you know you're in the upper echelon of Pinot Noir. In the most recent issue of Wine Spectator the 2007 Fulcrum "Split Rock Vineyard" Pinot was a top scorer with a whopping 94 points, the same as the aforementioned wines. James Laube writes:
A gorgeous young wine with impeccable balance, this zeros in
on a tight core of ripe cherry and wild berry fruit, with shades
of mineral, pebble and loamy earth. Full-bodied, well-structured,
complex and persistent. Drink now through 2014
Fulcrum is the work of co-founders David and Christina Rossi with consulting wine making support from Crushpad's Chris Nelson. David is certainly one of the most hands-on Crushpad clients, routinely doing most of his own wine making work.
