Note di degustazione
Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2017 Pinot Noir Skyline Vineyard opens with savory notions of green olive, prosciutto, licorice and dust with notes of citrus peel, wild blackberries, tobacco and cinnamon. Light to medium-bodied, it has a great core of savory, floral-tinged fruits, framed by firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness and finishing very long and very spicy.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Skyline Vineyard is marked by a decidedly ripe profile. Succulent wild cherry, kirsch, hard candy, mint, leather, spice and sweet tobacco are given an extra kick of savory complexity from the 100% whole clusters. The 2017 offers quite a bit of aromatic and flavor complexity in the mid-weight style that is typical of the 2017 Pinots at Rhys.
The 2017 Pinot Noir Skyline Vineyard is terrific stuff, but it’s going to need bottle age. Deep ruby/purple-hued with awesome notes of spice red and black fruits, sappy herbs, iodine, lavender, and crushed rocks, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, good concentration, building tannins, and a great finish. Do your best to hide bottles for a good 3-4 years and it's going to knock your socks off over the following decade.
