Gran Moraine Yamhill-Carlton Pinot Noir 2018
AT FIRST SIP-Initially gentle with lavender, chocolate and some spearmint. What eventuates is a more savoury, spicy nose with sassafras, spiced cherry and molasses. The palate is lead with blueberry and plum before leather, mushroom and pepper surround the fruit. Acidity remains fresh throughout with a pomegranate like brightness. Tannins are earthy, edging just out of gentle. AFTER A FEW-A slinky over berries.
