drew morning dew vineyard pinot noir (anderson valley)

點擊次數(shù)：1530

Another great Anderson Valley Pinot from Drew, made using fruit from a vineyard in Philo—the “deep end” or coolest section of the valley. While you won’t find obnoxious acidity despite the officially high reading, the wine does have cool-climate notes of mushrooms, pine needles and cola, in addition to classic fruit flavors of raspberries and cherries. It’s very fine, dry and complex; enjoy now or cellar for 6–8 years. — (10/1/2012) —93

Acidity marks this fresh, young Pinot Noir. It’s as if the raspberry and cherry wine has been enlivened with a splash or three of lime juice. This primary fruit tartness may be because the wine was bottled and rushed to market too early. Don’t drink it now. Give it a year or two to integrate. ——S.H.(4/1/2011)—— 87
