Hibou 2014 Riddle Vineyard Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Riddle Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Hibou / Russian River Valley

A youthful wine given 50% whole-cluster fermentation, this is complex and delicate, restrained in oak while being expressive in roses and bitter black tea. Soft, pungent black fruit provides a savory element that’s entirely welcome and interesting, before a freshness takes hold on the finish.
