Note di degustazione
(13.6% alcohol; these vines were planted in 1998): Good dark red. Red and dark fruits complicated by musky coffee, orange peel and spices on the nose. Sappy and concentrated, with ripe, harmonious acidity giving shape and lift to the flavors of black cherry, pomegranate, flowers and spices. Boasts lovely ripeness and a light touch, finishing with very fine tannins and excellent length. Impeccably balanced pinot noir, perhaps the best vintage to date for this bottling.

The 2012 Pinot Noir Summa Vineyard is drop-dead gorgeous. Cranberry, red cherry, wild flowers, mint and cinnamon meld together beautifully. I find a little more depth and focus in the Summa next to the Summa Old Vines, which is a bit more wandering, especially in its aromatics. Layers of bright red fruit build to the crystalline, inviting finish. The 2012 is round and supple in style, yet also layered with vibrancy.
