Very feminine delicate Pinot, almost no tannin, the structure comes from acidity. Floral, intriguing, and an absolute baby.

From an up and coming tiny producer. My first wine from Redwood Valley in Mendocino. A really cool minty eucalyptus tingle to the nose and palate stands out the most. Very aromatic, the aromas easily rise from the glass by just pouring the wine. Raspberry and rhubarb join the mint in the nose, all seasoned with wild herbs. The palate is juicy with good freshness and just the right weight (13.8 abv), there is nice length too.

Sign me up! If this is where domestic Pinot Noir production is headed, I am all in. Perfectly light bodied, lovely earth and acid. Perhaps a touch sweet mid-palate, but otherwise well done.

Lithe, undulating, and layered from front to back palette. Very young and like some others, almost no tannin.
