2006 L’Angevin Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
15.1% alc., 400 cases,
·
Sweet dark berry fruit with a little bubble gum note. Heavy oak char from start to
finish. Impressive essence of Bing cherry fruit, plenty of tannin and a short finish.
Copious power and oak here without much finesse. The alcohol is well integrated.
May benefit from more time in the bottle.
