Iris Vineyards 2014 Chalice Estate C Block Pinot Noir (Oregon)

Country: US / Chalice Estate C Block
Variety: Pinot Noir Oregon
Winery: Iris Vineyards / Oregon

The aromatics jump out, an intriguing mix of cherry fruit, leather, coffee and mocha. This is a block selection, and as such it is both precise and also a bit wanting in the midpalate. With ample aeration it fills in, finishing with dark fruit, roasted tannins and a little heat.
