Wedell Cellars 2010 Hillside Vineyard Pinot Noir (Edna Valley)

Country: US / Hillside Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Wedell Cellars / Edna Valley

A prime example of why Pinot Noir is great to release later in its life, this six-year-old wine is signing with concentrated strawberry, iron, dried rose petals, stewed black cherry and raw beef. The palate is quite earthy but also packs black plum, vanilla, pepper, thyme and marjoram into a wondrous and complete package.
