2018 Pinot Noir Tête de Cuvée

Raised in only 7% new French oak. The nose is crumbled stones, vanilla bean, blue plums and vine berries punctuated with an underlying crisp herb. The palate entry is a firm and penetrating mineral and spice with a gorgeous, sculpted mid-palate of harmonious black and dark red stone fruits finishing with nicely integrated bright acidity. Drink 2022 - 2032. 95 Points
