Crafted by Jim Clendenen of Au Bon Climat from fruit sourced from Mary Elke's Donnelly Creek Vineyard, ici/la bas is a long-time favorite of mine. I loved the wines from 1996, 1997 and 2006. This 2009 may be a tad less intense but nevertheless a special wine.
Medium light ruby shading to garnet. Wild red raspberries and cranberries, leather and spice. Ripe fruit with pleasing acidity. Medium long finish. Not as intense as the 2006 but no complaints.
