Note di degustazione
Light strawberry fruit and quite a bit of vanilla. Comes alive on the palate with seriously interesting dried bramble fruits and a great deal of intensity on the finish. Impressive but not offering much flavour complexity yet. (RH)

The 2012 Cincuenta y Cinco was sourced from a ripe vintage which resulted in a juicy, ripe, slightly candied Pinot Noir that shows aromas of sweet spices (cinnamon, vanilla). Despite all that, the wine only had 12.9% alcohol so the palate is fresher than the nose and has abundant fine tannins that would do well with food. Some 17,500 bottles were produced in 2012.
An opulent and rich pinot noir with spice, berry and dried strawberry. Full and powerful. Lots of fruity, flavorful character. Very Burgundian. Whole berry fermentation with pinot noir that\'s biodynamically grown. Drink now.
(12.9% alcohol): Pale-medium red. Tangy, shy aromas of raspberry, strawberry, cherry, peppery spices, horseradish and underbrush. Juicy, delicate and nicely delineated but youthfully tight, with pepper and herb notes accenting tart red berry flavors. Relies more on its bright acidity than on its dusty tannins for structure. Subtle and understated pinot if a bit undernourished. Not at the same level as the riper, deeper 2011 bottling.
