Note di degustazione
Sourced from a single block in the estate’s Maggy Hawk Vineyard in Anderson Valley, the 2016 Pinot Noir Velvet Sisters spent 16 months in 37% new French oak and, as with all the wines here, was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Bright cherry, red apple, spice box, and some mulberry notes as well as some marine salinity all flow to a medium to full-bodied, beautifully textured, multi-dimensional effort that has ripe tannins and integrated acidity. Give bottles a year and it should be a gem of a wine to enjoy through 2028.

The 2016 Pinot Noir Velvet Sisters is plump and juicy in the glass, with tremendous fruit presence and lovely overall intensity. Forward and succulent in feel, the 2016 will drink well with minimal cellaring. The Velvet Sisters is one of the more open-knit, accessible wines in this range.
Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir Velvet Sisters rocks up with boisterous notions of crushed black raspberries, blueberries, red plums and black cherries plus hints of cloves, cinnamon stick and chocolate box. Full-bodied, plushy textured and decadently fruited in the mouth, it delivers mouth-filling black fruits and spices, finishing long. 323 cases produced.
