Note di degustazione
Vivid garnet. Intense red fruit, floral and succulent floral aromas show sharp definition and suave vanilla and incense overtones. Smoothly blends depth and liveliness on the palate, offering juicy raspberry, cherry and candied rose qualities that become spicier as the wine stretches out. Finishes impressively long and gently chewy, with sneaky tannins and a touch of cola.

A different beast coming from the Anderson Valley in Mendocino County, the 2016 Pinot Noir Kite’s Rest offers more red and blue fruits as well as notes of candied violets, bay leaf, underbrush, and incense. Supple, nicely textured, with terrific purity of fruit, and nicely integrated acidity, it’s another terrific wine from this estate.
(two-thirds new French oak) Lurid ruby-red. Sexy, oak-spiced raspberry and floral pastille scents, along with hints of cola, vanilla and musky underbrush. Appealingly sweet and precise on the palate, offering juicy red fruit liqueur, spicecake and mocha flavors that deepen slowly on the back half. Shows very good clarity and spicy lift on the impressively long, silky finish, which leaves behind suggestions of five-spice powder and vanilla.
