earth and tobacco notes

Blackberry aromas

There is enough wood present to warrant commenting on though it’s not enough to endanger the clear expression of the pretty red cherry

the vineyard is so steep here that it must be worked entirely by hand as tractors would be dangerous to use)

Sourced from 4ha of 65-year-old vines on granitic soils in the lieu-dit of Les Bessards

Talley, Pinot Noir Rincon other_regions_italy earth and tobacco notesThe 2019 Pinot Noir Rincon Vineyard shows slightly more fruit on the nose and is a softer, more up front wine. Framboise, flowers, salty sea breeze, and spicy notes all define the nose, and its fresh and lively on the palate, with medium bodied richness. I like it today, yet I suspect it will be even better with a year or two in bottle and should drink brilliantly through 2031.
