Note di degustazione
Dark, bright-rimmed scarlet. Exotically perfumed red berry preserve, potpourri and Moroccan spice aromas show outstanding clarity and pick up a smoky mineral nuance with air. Smoothly marries power and finesse, offering palate-staining black raspberry, boysenberry, rose pastille and spicecake flavors that deepen steadily through the back half. Shows sharp definition and repeating florality on the strikingly persistent finish, which features polished tannins and a sappy, resonating red fruit liqueur note.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Bergstrom Vineyard comes from the original vines planted in 1999. Medium ruby in color, it opens with touches of charcuterie, peppercorn, scorched earth and tar, very slowly segueing to potpourri, leather, wild blackberries and bright red berries with amaro nuances coming through with time. It’s medium-bodied and serious in the mouth with savory and spice-laced fruits, a firm, chalky frame and seamless freshness to lift the finish. This needs at least another couple of years in bottle.
Really impressively cast complexity on the nose with ripe red to dark cherries and a super plush web of fine, long tannin that carries long and convincing. The finish is expansive, as good pinot should be. Drink across the next six to eight years.
Big and with great potential. Lots to chew on. Dry finish, like sucking on warm rocks. (JR)
