Country: US / Boer Family Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Pali / Chalone
Beautifully rich and ripe in cherries, raspberries and sweet smoky cedar, this Pinot is fully drinkable now, although decanting will help. But it’s also an ager. Shows a mushroomy dryness and herbal grounding that suggest improvement through 2013.
