Tasted 6 May 2017
Sonoma County · Russian River Valley
Though I remember liking this wine ok, I honestly can't remember it in comparison to the others in the tasting. Like other CT notes have mentioned, it was more medium-bodied than the others, which might have added to it…
A nice, refreshing start to the flight. Fairly typical Rose of Pinot; decent acidity and mid-palate all things considering. Nothing especially memorable, but still delivered some pleasurable diluted…
Honeycomb and syrup. Bashingly cloying and richly sweet. No real Chardonnay fruit was able to peek out behind the wave of sticky honey and viscous gomme.
Similar in profile to the 2013 except that this didn't carry as hearty of a bell pepper note as its older sibling. Some brush and vegetal notes on the back end, but this 2014 was much more focused…
