Ripe Japanese pear and cantaloupe, with salty undertones, combine with a soft mousse and beautiful length on the palate. Really nice to enjoy now, this has some good aging potential based on both the weight and acidity.
“Scents of almond extract and nutty pear render this wine delicious and flavorful. It’s got an especially generous, broad texture; a late-fall sipper to serve with bacon-wrapped monk fish. 90 Points.”
Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2017 Pinot Noir la Boheme opens with sweet spices, vanilla, tree bark and citrus peel aromas over black berries, black cherries, aniseed and dusty earth. It’s medium-bodied with an intense core of spicy fruits, a grainy frame and seamless freshness, finishing long and spicy. 700 cases produced.
“The 2017 Pinot Noir Roosevelt has a pale to medium ruby color and a nose of garrigue, licorice, red currant, cured meats and forest floor with nuances of blackberries and savory herbs. It’s medium-bodied with intense, spicy fruits, a firm, grainy frame and great freshness, finishing long and spicy.”
“medium ruby-purple color with aromas of cranberry sauce, Italian plum, crushed black cherries, vanilla and touches of charcuterie, dried earth and potpourri. It’s light to medium-bodied and silky with a good core of spicy fruits, a firm, grainy frame and good freshness, finishing long and spicy.”
“lightly scented of blackberries, tar, earth, red currant and black tea leaves with a spicy undercurrent. It’s light to medium-bodied with spicy fruits, a grainy frame and great freshness, finishing restrained.”
“scented of loamy earth, blackberries, black cherries, black tea leaves, cinnamon stick and sweet spices. It’s medium-bodied with a good core of black fruits, a grainy frame and great freshness, finishing spicy.”
