Country: US / Rincon Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Talley / Arroyo Grande Valley
Riper and fruitier than last year’s release, a big, juicy wine that rewards the palate with layers of blackberry and cherry on top of the usual cola, tomato and rhubarb flavors. Structurally, it’s a big wine, with firm tannins. I would cellar this until next year.
