Note di degustazione
The 2021 Pinot Noir Olivet Lane is ripe and complete with floral layers of aromas as well as crushed rocks, pure black cherry, and wild herbs. Full-bodied, it’s balanced with fresh acidity and has a refined mouthfeel, with notes of sweet tea leaf, wild berries, and incense. Long on the palate, it has immediate appeal but will be a great wine to age over the next 15 to 20 years.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Olivet Lane Vineyard comes from vines planted in the mid-1970s and was matured for 15 months in 61% new oak. It's powerful and expressive this vintage and shows notable complexity at this early stage. Medium ruby-purple in color, the nose begins with waves of blueberry, blackberry jam and pomegranate, and with coaxing, pure streaks of garrigue, pipe tobacco and wildflowers emerge. Medium-bodied, it glides through the mouth seamlessly, its velvety texture supporting layer after layer of spice, earth and bitters that fan across the very long, flavorful finish. Only 280 cases were made.
