Note di degustazione
Bright ruby. Pungent, smoke-tinged aromas of dried cherry, blackberry and musky herbs, with a potpourri nuance building in the glass. Juicy, concentrated and expansive, offering cherry-cola and licorice pastille flavors and a hint of rose. Building tannins shape the clinging, smoky finish, which leaves a bitter cherry note behind. Bob Cabral told me he thinks this vineyard is producing more masculine wines than it did in the past.

The 2012 Pinot Noir Olivet Lane Vineyard offers lovely immediacy and plenty of early appeal. Crushed flowers, mint, sweet red berries and subtle earthy notes all take shape in the glass. The 2012 has an attractive sense of poise and centeredness, although it remains a bit chunky and rough around the edges.
