Note di degustazione
The 2018 Pinot Noir Knox Alexander, which includes 35% stems, reveals a more medium ruby hue (I doubt that it's been filtered) as well as a complex, nuanced style in its spiced red and black fruits as well as notes of new leather, spice box, and loamy earth. Medium-bodied, nicely balanced, and textured, it's another unquestionably Burgundian-styled beauty from this team with lots to love.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Knox Alexander is a dense, powerful wine. Dark red cherry, plum, tobacco, cedar, kirsch, blood orange, rose petal and healthy dose of new oak all meld together effortlessly. There's real character and depth here. Another year or two in bottle will be hugely beneficial in helping the elements meld together even more fully. Vineyard sites are Bien Nacido and a bit of Le Bon Climat.
Pale garnet, the 2018 Pinot Noir Knox Alexander is very spicy on the nose with aromas of wild red and black berries, licorice, orange peel and leather plus notes of dried herbs. The light-bodied palate is delicately styled and gently rustic, with a spicy finish.
