This premiere Pinot Noir opens with aromas of raspberry, lavender, blackberry, cedar and vanilla bean while flavors of boysenberry, black tea, Bing cherry finish with a powerful elegance.
The interplay of cool ocean breezes and warm, sun-kissed days bestows upon these vines a distinctive character, evoking a sense of grace and elegance that is echoed in the wine. The 2021 vintage is long and lively with layers of red berry bliss, embraced by hints of vanilla and a gentle earthiness that unveils a captivating story in every sip.
Enticing red cherry and pomegranate aromas gain depth from the fennel pollen and crushed thyme elements on the nose of this single-vineyard expression. The palate is tense and snappy with bright acidity, as raspberry flavors meet with wild mint and light tarragon.
The 2021 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard is a classy, elegant wine. Bright red-toned fruit, cinnamon, dried leaves, tobacco and orange peel are beautifully lifted. Translucent and super-expressive, with tons of energy, the 2021 is absolutely compelling. It's a terrific wine from Brian Talley.
The 2021 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard is a step up and has a beautiful nose of ripe framboise, spring flowers, black tea, and leather. As with all of the Pinot Noirs here, it plays in the medium-bodied, elegant (at times mid-weight) style of the estate, but the balance is spot on, it has beautiful tannins, and a great finish. This incredibly seductive, elegant 2021 will evolve for at least a decade.
