Note di degustazione
All own-rooted Abel clone. 60% whole bunch. Aged 18 months in barriques (50% new). Very deep blackish garnet. Rich and sweet. Luscious sweetness. Big and bold and almost Californian with a hint of mint. Just a little dry on the end. But a very good, exciting rendition. Not burgundy-pure but a perfectly valid expression of original owner Larry McKenna and Pinot! Just slightly too tannic on the end but lots of fun. (JR)

Medium ruby purple colored, the 2013 Kupe Pinot Noir has a youthfully muted nose revealing suggestions of black berries plus whiffs of charcoal, bay leaf, lavender and dusty earth. Medium-bodied, taut and firmly textured at this early stage, it gives gentle mineral laced black fruit flavors and has very good persistence.
