Country: US / California
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Gary Farrell / Bien Nacido Vineyard
Extraordinarily sweet and attractive in raspberry and cherry fruit, as concentrated and pure as anything in California. The acidity is beautiful, as you’d expect from this vineyard in such a cool vintage, and it showcases Pinot Noir’s silkiness and beauty. Despite the immediate flash, it will develop bottle complexity; hold until 2016.
