90-93 Here the nose is quite firmly reduced and while the mouthfeel of the stony middle weight flavors is notably finer, along with excellent delineation, the moderately austere and compact finale is carrying quite a bit of gas, which doesn’t make the balance easy to assess. Even so, this is solidly concentrated, especially for the vintage, and I suspect that my projected range will ultimately prove to be reasonably accurate.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.
