2016 | Tolosa Winery | 'Primera' Pinot Noir

A deep ruby color as well as a powerful bouquet of cassis, plums, toasted baking spices, bouquet garni, and subtle background oak. With plenty of fruit, medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannin, and terrific overall balance.

Reviews:

• Matt Kettmann: Lush and plump aromas of vanilla, black-cherry sauce, roasted rhubarb, strawberry and slate show on the nose of this producer's top-tier bottling. The palate is soft at first and then the oaky tannins arise to give structure, which is required for the plush ripe baked strawberry fruit.

• Jeb Dunnock: This wine is no lightweight, revealing a deep ruby color as well as a powerful bouquet of cassis, plums, toasted baking spices, bouquet garni, and subtle background oak. With plenty of fruit, medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannin, and terrific overall balance.
