Note di degustazione
The 2018 Pinot Noir First Born, a selection of the best barrels in the cellar, is mostly Campbell and a bit of Baranoff, done with all destemmed fruit. It marries power with translucence beautifully. Darker shades of fruit and a touch of new oak are front and center. This is another fabulous wine in the range.

Medium ruby, the 2018 Pinot Noir First Born has a nose of smoked cherries, prosciutto, dried earth and leaves with accents of star anise and sweet spices. Light-bodied, the palate is bright, soft and juicy with earthy fruits and an uplifted, bitters-laced finish. 60 cases were made.
The 2018 Pinot Noir First Born also showed beautifully, with a complex yet elegant style that's already approachable. Coming from a selection of the best lots and 90% destemmed and aged in 40% new barrels, it offers a great perfume of raspberries, orange blossom, violets, and dried flowers. With medium to full body, beautiful purity of fruit, and integrated acidity, it's another classy wine from this estate that will impress over the coming 7-8 years or more.
