Note di degustazione
The 2021 Pinot Noir George Menini is a new bottling from Paul Hobbs. It has ringing tones of red and black cherries, blueberries and lavender on the nose and reveals accents of iodine, mossy bark and tobacco as it spends time in the glass. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and fresh with a concentrated core of dark, broody fruit, generous earthy nuances and a very long, mouthwatering finish. 640 cases were made.

The 2021 Pinot Noir George Menini Estate, here in its first release, is phenomenal. It offers a striking mix of Russian River opulence and West Sonoma Coast energy. Not surprisingly, it offers tons of energy and nuance. Red/purplish fruit, rose petal, lavender, mint and spice all build as this deep, beautifully resonant Pinot shows off its considerable allure.
This is so spicy, with crushed cloves, nettles and blue fruit. Sichuan spices, too. Full-bodied with juicy fruit and orange zest. Creamy and polished tannins. Wonderful depth and length. Drink or hold.
