If you tasted Kenny Likitprakong's terrific 2007 Folk Machine Pinot Noir (sold out), Factories & Smoke is the big brother wine. Kenny makes F & S from a vineyard that he farms in the Potter Valley in Mendocino. It's a warm area, and the fruit is deep and plush - though it doesn't lose it's Pinot Noir style / identity along the way. It's still young and can use a swirl around the carafe. Do that, and throw it at a roasted duck from Chinatown. Only 100 cases made.

PinotFile wrote this regarding the 2009 vintage: "13.9% alc., screw cap. 47% Sonoma County, 19% Monterey County, 34% Santa Barbara County. 'May-OH-mee.' Winemaker Joseph J. Wagner of Belle Glos Wines. Dark reddish-purple hue in the glass. Demure blueberry and plum sauce aromas with distracting oak char. Teeth-staining core of vivid black raspberry, strawberry, plum and cassis flavors with an underpinning of oak toast and vanillin. Blessed with pillowy tannins."

The purity of this wine is immediately evident by its bright, vibrant ruby color. It has a nose of fresh red rose petals with a mineral intensity and fruit that explodes from the glass with characters of black plum and blood orange zest. On the palate the sense of purity returns with a fruity attack, a full mid-palate of candied apple and plum supported by a lacy, acid backbone and nuanced oak. The palate evolves seamlessly to a long fine grained finish. The wine slowly unfolds and shows surprising...

This is one lip-smacking Pinot Noir with sweet, floral and spicy smells. Then the taste! Loads of rich, dark spicy cherries with classic Pinot red rose edge to it. New French oak, over half new, adds body and pie spice flavor. This is very much on the richer, stronger side of Pinot Noir. Paul Hobbs, Winemaker.
