Note di degustazione
Racy and nervy, this generous and complex pinot offers aromas of wild strawberries, raspberry bush and touches of dried rose petals, dusty minerals and pepper. The medium-bodied palate is silky and fresh, with fine tannins gently framing the delicate red fruit and hint of citrus zest in the long, graceful finish. Focused and precise. Drink or hold.

A youthful red/ruby hue in the glass, the 2022 Pinot Noir Own-Rooted is very pretty and floral on the nose, with notes of wild black raspberries, fresh flowers, a hint of porcini powder, and sweet forest earth. Harmonious and medium-bodied, it fills the palate with a juicy feel upfront and is approachable now, with ripe, sweet tannins, fresh accents of bright acidity, and an even, balanced finish. It’s well-detailed and rounded and is going to show its best over the next 10-15 years.
The 2022 Pinot Noir Own-Rooted opens with a spice box bouquet, blending cedar shavings and cinnamon sticks with cloves and dried black cherries. It’s soothingly round and pliant with ripe red berry fruits, building saline minerality as an air of rosy inner florals amasses toward the close. It tapers off with tension, pleasantly tart and gently tannic, leaving a hint of blood orange that slowly fades. Don’t be surprised if the Own-Rooted shuts down in bottle for a short time. It’s worth following.
