2014 Occidental Pinot Noir SWK

Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Saturday, September 7, 2019 - Let me start by saying I think this will evolve into a better glass of vino with time.

Lots of plum and blueberry and a little jaboticaba. Excellent concentration of fruit. Plenty of structure behind it. It needed air. I was not expecting it to need 3 hours to open up but it did. I thought this was clearly American in style (I like both burgs and us pinots), but it doesnt have the same depth of minerality that some of the best pinots do. That said, this is a very good bottle.

I will wait to open more of these until 2021.
