Note di degustazione
Deep, glistening red. An expansive, finely etched bouquet evokes fresh red and blue fruits, incense, potpourri and exotic spices, along with suggestions of cola and smoky minerals. At once concentrated and graceful in style, offering juicy, intense raspberry, cherry, boysenberry, floral pastille and spicecake flavors. The berry and floral qualities carry strongly through a strikingly long, sweet, subtly tannic finish that leaves building mineral and spice notes behind, eventually.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Evelyn's comes from about half Pommard and half Dijon clone fruit and was aged in about 40% new oak. Pale ruby-purple, it opens with some tarry/scorched earth aromas, unwinding slowly to red and black cherries and sweet red berry fruits with nuances of violets and amaro. The light to medium-bodied palate is firm, grainy and fresh with a long, flavorful finish. Give this another couple of years in bottle. 250 cases produced.
This offers plenty of meaty spices and dark cherries that follow through to the palate in deliciously juicy, fully expressive mode. The tannins are sweeping and fall neatly around the long, expressive finish. Drink or hold.
