USA, Sonoma Coast
Pinot Noir
Price category: $$$$
Description
With its heightened red berry character and an aromatic sweetness that nimbly balances the lively fruit acidity, the 2018 Belay Estate Pinot Noir instantly captivates. Delicate notes of wintergreen and dried tea leaf weave throughout the fruit, accompanied by a whisper of Chinese Five Spice. Highlighting its layered complexity is a touch of umeboshi at its core, along with briny, coastal nuances that hearken back to its Sonoma Coast origin. Lifted and light on its feet, with polished tannins and a pronounced and enduring mouth- feel that rounds to a grippy finish.
