Naturally fermented and aged for 11 months in French barriques, 25% new, the 2009 Leah Pinot Noir has a pale to medium ruby-purple color and pronounced aromas of black cherries, black raspberries and violets with hints of cinnamon stick and chocolate. Medium-full bodied with a medium level of silky tannins, it has balancing acidity and mouth-filling blackberry and cherry flavors, finishing long with lingering cinnamon and spearmint notes. Drinking now, it should cellar through 2015+. Importer: The Sorting Table, Napa, CA
