2018 En Garde Petaluma Gap Pinot Noir

13.8% alc., 125 cases, $60. Noble Family Estate Vineyard. Clones “828” and Pommard. Harvest Brix 25.5º. Aged 15 months in French oak barrels, 20% new. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. Very seductive nose offering aromas of red cherry, rose petal, white pepper and oak spice. Oak-dusted dark red cherry and purple berry fruit flavors in a light to mid-weight style. Up front and the most accessible Pinot Noir in the 2018 En Garde lineup. Excellent energy, gossamer tannins and a sturdy finish showing red candied cherry goodness. Still enjoyable the following day from a previously opened bottle. Score: 93. Reviewed February 28, 2021 WINERY » ARTICLE »
