2016 Sante Arcangeli Integrato Barrel Selection Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir

14.1% alc., 350 cases, $39. Sourced from Lester Family, McConnell, Saveria and Herr vineyards. A barrel selection from single-vineyard lots. Clones 2A, Swan, “828,” 667,115 and Mt. Eden. Harvest Brix 23.0º-25.0º. 95% de-stemmed. 10% saignee. Native and inoculated yeast fermentation. Aged 10 months on lees in French oak barrels, 33% new. Filtered at bottling. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. Leading off are aromas of black cherry, toast and pipe smoke. The barrel management is more commendable in this mid weight wine featuring a core of vivacious black cherry and black raspberry fruits. The attack has purpose, the tannins are harmonious, the appealing texture is sleek, and the finish is highly notable for its intensity. Score: 90. Reviewed March 17, 2018 WINERY » ARTICLE »
