Note di degustazione
Saturated, vivid red. A highly perfumed bouquet displays spice- and mineral-accented red and blue fruit preserve, incense, potpourri and licorice scents and a hint of freshly turned earth. Alluringly sweet and expansive in the mouth, offering concentrated boysenberry, black raspberry, exotic spice and lavender pastille flavors that show impressive litheness for their depth. Polished tannins emerge slowly on a strikingly long finish that leaves juicy dark berry and five-spice powder notes behind. 50% whole clusters; 26% new French oak.

Specially selected best barrels from the famous Mimi Casteel 's vineyard. Dijon clone 667 and Pommard clone 5. Medium-intensity garnet. Very rich and intense on the nose. Positively heady. If this were in Burgundy, you would take it for a grand cru wine. The price seems perfectly reasonable! Beautiful poise as well as all that flavour. Wonderful depth and nuance of flavour. (JR)
Aromas of wild blackberries, redcurrants and tea leaves with floral undertones. Itâs medium-bodied with crunchy tannins. Juicy and textured with bright acidity and spicy character. Vibrant and focused. Drink or hold.
Medium ruby, the 2018 Pinot Noir Mimi's Mind has broody aromas of blackberries laced with earth, aniseed and classy whole-cluster spice. The palate is medium-bodied, black-fruited, glossy and ultra fresh with a lovely dichotomy of bright freshness lifting the long finish.
