3/5/2024 - khmark7 wrote: 88 pointsHolding up well despite the age. This Pinot shows the heat of the 2012 vintage and is more similar to a central coast California Pinot than most anything you will find in Michigan in 90% of the vintages. A larger example of Pinot Noir. |

A bunch of varietals, a few of them French hybrids, aged on some good oak. We get the typical flavors and aromas of the Bordeaux varieties in luscious oak trying to synergize with the earthy, leafy Michigan grown hybrids. It’s quite unique. It doesn’t taste flawed. By the time we got there this has been released for a few years. It’s just shy of medium bodied. Very nice red fruit. We love good oak. Almost gave it 90. |

2018 Bel Lago Vineyard Pinot NoirLeelanau Peninsula more |
4/6/2023 - Vino Me wrote: 90 pointsAt a tasting room. The best of the 8 wines that I tried from this Northern Michigan estate. 100% Pinot Noir sourced 70% Moreno Vineyard and 30% Longview Vineyard. Light clear red color. A more elegant and feminine style of Pinot Noir. Notes of cranberries, leather, smoky red fruit and some spice on the finish. 90 points. |
