92 Points: “Pale to medium ruby, the 2016 Pinot Noir Les Voisins, aged 16 months in 10% new French oak, opens with aromas of stewed black
tea leaves, crushed red cherries, fresh cranberries, orange peel, forest floor and damp earth. Light to medium-bodied, it's bright and fresh in the mouth with a great balance of fresh fruit and earth character, framed with soft, grainy tannins and finishing long. Drink dates 2020 – 2030.” – Erin Brooks, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (December 2019)
FROM THE WINERY
Winemaker Notes: Derived from the Deep End of Anderson Valley, our 2016 "Les Voisins" Pinot Noir is a powerhouse in a concise package. Upfront, the wine is
brimming with aromas of blueberry compote, kirsch and wet sandstone. The plush, yet dense palate is very approachable while showing layer upon layer of complexity with each swirl of the glass. Blackberry and graphite flavor dance together. The finish is lengthy and persistent. This wine is the perfect introduction to new Pinot Noir fans and will also please the most critical fans of classic Burgundy.
