Note di degustazione
Bright red. Displays aromas of redcurrant, raspberry and earthy rhubarb, with note of white pepper adding vibrancy. Offers tangy red berry and blood orange flavors that stretch out and gain sweetness with air. Clean, nervy and focused on the finish, featuring silky tannins and lingering spiciness.

Interesting! Fruity but lots of iodine, marmite, umami mushroom character as well. Dry, chewy finish. Compelling. (RH)
A model of total elegance and class, the 2011 Pinot Noir from Flowers is absolutely gorgeous. Savory herbs, crushed flowers, licorice, salt, orange peel, mint and plums are all woven together in the glass. Today, the 2011 is impeccably crafted and flat-out gorgeous. Although very much a medium-bodied wine, I would not at all be surprised to see the 2011 blossom with more time in bottle. This is an impressive effort. Unfortunately, the Sonoma Coast was the only 2011 Flowers Pinot I was able to taste, but based on this effort, 2011 is certainly shaping up well here.

Jason Jardine, formerly General Manager at Rhys, joined Flowers in 2010. The wines I have tasted since then have been interesting and distinctive. Tel. (707) 847-3661
