Note di degustazione
The 2019 Pinot Noir Paige's Ridge is a more structured wine, offering ample raspberry and bright cherry fruits, medium body, a pure, focused, elegant texture, and ripe yet focused, firmer tannins. I love the overall balance, it has a great spine of acidity, and enough structure to warrant 2-4 years of bottle age. It's one classy wine, though.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Paige’s Ridge was made with 667 clone fruit and aged in 50% new French oak. Medium ruby-purple, it opens with delicate floral perfume—dried violets and lavender—with a plush, inviting core of spicy red berry preserves. The palate is seamless and packed with an array of red fruits and sparks of spice, stone and flowers. It finishes very long. It's a stunning Pinot Noir for its pure, intense flavors and lifted, ethereal structure and will show best after another 2-3 years' maturation.
The 2019 Pinot Noir Paige's Ridge emerges from a single block on shallow soils planted with the 667 clone. Iron, crushed rocks, dried flowers, spice and orange peel add notable brightness to this beautifully focused Pinot. I would give the 2019 a few years to soften, as it is a bit tight today. Rose petal, crushed rocks, lavender and sage linger on the savory finish.
