Bacchus Collection Estate Vineyard Pinot Meunier 2018

David T
9.0

Have not had 100% Pinot Meunier that was not from Champagne and in bubble form. This is from Napa/Carneros.

Still young and would prefer to have this in 3-5 yrs.

The palate is dark fruits. Not quite Santa Rita Hills extraction but more than most Northern California.

It is still a bit angular. Blackberries, black raspberries, black plum w/ heavy skin, dark cherries, plum and some poached strawberries. Grainy limestone, dry stone, dark top soil, lots dark spice, cinnamon stick, clove, nutmeg, some pepper, dry tobacco, new leather, grilled meats, dry tumble weed, dry, red, dark flowers with violets, fresh acidity and a balanced, highly structured/tensioned, polished finish that lasts 90 seconds.

Many would call CDP on this blind.

@David T Bests winery in Western Victoria have Pinot Meunière vines used to make a very special dry red. Planted in 1868 they are believed to be the oldest Pinot Meunière vines in the world.

California Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Bold fruity flavor with a strong velvet feel. Holds up against a lot of spicy savory flavors, so it’s great with a dinner meal. — 4 months ago
