At Biggio Hamina, we chatted with owner Todd Hamina, who just turned out his 14th vintage. He told us how the name is a combination of his last name and his wife’s maiden name (are we seeing a trend developing?).
While I was savoring the incredible aromatics on his wine, he humbly stated how “making a good Pinot Noir is akin to bragging about being the tallest midget.” Well, Todd, I don’t know about that midget thing, but you certainly have something to boast about. The 2007 Deux Vert Pinot Noir had a beautifully light and almost translucent color, a floral nose with lush red cherries and a hint of underlying earthiness; it was every bit balanced with fruit, lively acids and velvety tannins… flawless.
