A balanced full bodied wine with deep structure, soft tannins, and a long dry finish. This wine was hand harvested, hand sorted and wild fermented without any additives, aged in French oak for 18 months (35% new) and bottled unfiltered & unfined. This wine will age nicely in the bottle for many years to come. 75 cases produced.
2014 Shared Table Farm - 91 pts Wine Enthusiast Primary, concentrated raspberry and cherry flavors pierce through the core of this rich, fruity Pinot. Subtle oak aging lends delicate vanilla, spice and nut tones, but it's an elegant, finely structured wine with crisp acidity and fine, persistent tannins. Drinks well now but should improve through 2021.
2014 Shared Table Farm - 90+ pts Wine Advocate Aromatic, sensual and caressing in texture, this sexy but nuanced Pinot Noir manages to be graceful and jam-packed with fruit flavor, too. Ending with red berry nuances leaning to raspberry and cherry, this is irresistible from the first smell to the last sip. As flavorful as it is, it becomes drier and more serious with air. There is a crisper edge underneath. In other words, it's not really a fruit bomb—it just plays one when you first pull the cork. The tannins are moderate enough so that you can drink this right now, but it should certainly hold a reasonable time. Overall, this is beautifully done.
