2011 Holden Wine Company Pinot Noir Medici Vineyard
Community Tasting Note
ucbeau Likes this wine:
Friday, May 3, 2013 - When poured, this looks almost exactly like a traditional Willamette Valley Pinot Noir rose, but it's not. Beautiful aromas of tart cranberry and cherry, white pepper, and dusty soil all become apparent as the wine opens. It's light on its feet, with plenty of acidity to support the bright red fruit flavors. Supporting the fruit, I found more white pepper and earth tones, as well as some interesting baking spice too. Overall, an absolutely delicious, dangerously quaffable wine.
