Seems like Chanin Wines need a few years to really incorporate and this Rinconada Vineyard from 2014 seemed to be getting right into that spot. Chuggable while complex, with layers of high toned fruit, savory tannins, and super balanced acidity

Opens up as you go but smooth and buttery for a pino. Red fruit and tart but slightly flat.

🏵 89-91 points

🍷 Light shimmering cherry ruby

👃 Smokey cherry bacon cola w/ spicy earthy mushed herbs, green raspberry & hints of red fruits + blackberry

👄 Med body of delicate fine silky red cherry, soft green stalk blackberry & a touch of red fruits

🎯 Med red fruity cherry smooth soft finish w/ a hint of greenness in light blackberry

Gordons Čhanin tasting 6/13/17. $45. #7. Like 2013 but more fruit notes and good finish. Lively and very new world in a good way. Complexity underneath and could age well. Softer than '13 and seemed older.
