Seeing 100% whole-cluster, the 2012 Pinot Noir Ex Vite is a serious 2012 that does everything right. Possessing plenty of ground herbs, spice and earth, no doubt from the whole-cluster, to go with a solid core of fruit, this beauty hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, loads of texture and building, sweet tannin. As with all of the Pinot Noirs from this estate, it's well made and can be enjoyed anytime over the coming 3-5 years.
