Pinot Noir, Rhinefarm Vineyard

Pinot Noir, Rhinefarm Vineyard Wine Details
Price: $32.00 per bottle

Description: Rich and balanced, with deep black cherry, clove and dried rose petal aromas that carry over to the flavors and expand in the mouth. The suppleness of the 35-year-old Wente and Hanzell clone fruit gains depth and concentration from the young Pommard and Dijon blocks, resulting in a complex, mouth-filling, medium-bodied Pinot Noir packed with intense Burgundian fruit character framed by fine, resolved tannins. The long, smooth finish offers black plum, cherry, and roasted espresso bean flavors. This classic Pinot Noir will benefit from cellaring 3 - 7 years from the vintage date. Gold Medal, 2005 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
