Note di degustazione
The 2016 Pinot Noir Mimi's Mind comes from fruit grown by Mimi Casteel. Medium ruby, the nose is layered: blackberries, boysenberries and marionberries are accented by spicy nuances of licorice, loamy earth, tar, blood orange, dried violets and autumn leaves. The medium-bodied, silky palate gives up loads of ripe, earth-laced fruits with a firmer, albeit grainy frame and good freshness to lift the long, densely flavored finish. This beauty is drinking well now but will benefit from another year or two in bottle.

Translucent red. A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes red fruit preserves, incense and potpourri, with smoky mineral and Asian spice accents building as the wine opens up. Juicy, appealingly sweet and concentrated yet lithe on the palate, offering intense raspberry, cherry liqueur, spicecake flavors and a hint of candied rose on the back half. Delivers solid punch but comes off graceful, showing absolutely no rough edges on its extremely long, vibrant, red fruit-driven finish.
