2012 Boars' View Pinot Noir The Coast

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Monday, November 24, 2014 - On the first night the nose on this admittedly Pobegaed wine was reticent but the palate showed some intense fruit. Tonight, 24 hours after being open, the nose is full of pretty primary berries, hints of chocolate, and even a touch of mint. I readied myself for a huge palate and was surprised by somewhat restrained red and black fruit with some green notes and somewhat dusty tannins. Very young but not unbalanced. I get no heat in this whatsoever. Nice acidity too. Glad to have several bottles. Will wait at least a year to try number two. The name suits it.

    When a highly anticipated delivery of wine arrives at your home and you don't even wait for the delivery person to leave your property before you grab a corkscrew and open one to drink, sometimes inviting that delivery person a taste, to which they should obviously say no to, since they are driving a big truck."
