Note di degustazione
The 2013 Pinot Noir Silver Eagle is from a vineyard owned by the well-known viticulturalist and winemaker Ulises Valdez. This is a blend of three clones: Calera, 828 and a suitcase clone from Vosne-Romanée known as VR. This is a bigger, richer Pinot Noir than the Occidental Ridge, with darker fruits and more forest floor, black cherry and blackcurrant notes, a lush, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and beautiful concentration and depth. This is a stunner that should drink well for another decade.

The 2013 Pinot Noir Silver Eagle Vineyard comes across as deep, powerful and intense, with wilder, gamier notes that underpin the dark blue/purplish fruit. Smoke, licorice, violets and earthy notes add depth and gravitas to a Pinot of mysterious, seductive beauty and compelling balance. The Silver Eagle is a blend of Vosne-Romanée and Calera clones, done with 10% whole clusters and aged in 33% new French oak.
