Only 363 cases made. Made by a Fresno State Bulldog! The 2006 Widdoes Vineyard has a medium ruby red color and a brilliant appearance. Bright cherry, peppermint, hibiscus, floral black cherry cola, sandalwood and forest floor aromas are followed by sweet and ripe flavors of plum with a lingering fig aftertaste. Always a quintessential Russian River Pinot Noir.- Winery Notes
Sean Capiaux, an extremely talented BullDog!
We fell in love with Sean Capiaux's style by way of his 2004 O'Shaunessy Howell Mt. Cabernet, a robust Cabernet with an incredible balance of fruit, to wood to acidity. This 94 pointer from Robert Parker however, is just the tip of iceberg for Sean Capiaux tremendous creations. After graduating from Fresno State in Enology and Chemistry, Sean Capiaux worked for Jordan, Pine Ridge, and Peter Michael in Calfornia. He established his own winery in 1994 and Capiaux Cellars is dedicated to making Burgundian Style Pinot Noir from some of California's best Pinot Vineyards. Sean works currently on Capiaux Cellars while he also works for O'Shaughnessy and his Cabernets from O'Shaughnessy have scored 91-96 pts consistantly for the last 6 vintages! - Nick's Staff Notes
