Kistler, Sonoma Coast, Silver Belt Vineyard, Cuvee Natalie, Pinot Noir 2011 Champagne 26% Cabernet Sauvignon95 points Vinous An eccentric, beguiling Pinot, the 2011 Pinot Noir Silver Belt Cuve Natalie is long on personality. Heady, exotic aromatics meld into a core of beautifully layered fruit in an expressive yet weightless, ethereal Pinot that constantly changes in the glass. Game, savory herbs and tangerine peel all add nuance on the finish. The Cuve Natalie is mostly Swan clone Pinot, with some Calera. (AG) (2 2014) 94 points Int'l Wine Cellar Brilliant
