Knox Alexander Estate Bottled Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir

Nice and balanced. Yummy.

Brilliant transparent ruby. Beautiful nose with strawberries and roses. Refined and complex, with velvety tannin, great purity of fruit and wonderful balancing acidity. Wow ! 2012 vintage. Abv. 13,5%.

Black cherry, raspberry, blackberry, loamy earth, dusty leather and oak. Great structure and well-integrated tannins.

Plot specific- estate fruit- low alc- super duper yummy factor!

Big, fruity, oaky.

Santa Barbara. 😎

Had it to porkbelly and it worked like a clock. Intense fruity complex a bit pepper on the nose. Yumstrrs!

Gorgeous nose! Like a palette of herbs resting on a bed of fruit. All carefully composed. There are minerally ozone-like notes on top too adding to the complexity and leaving a very fresh impression. Mouthfeel is pretty balanced; perhaps on the tart/young end of the scale right now. Lots of acidity but keeps the depth of the herb abd fruit mixture to the finish. Will probably improve further from here.

Bränd jord och fat i överflöd, vanilj, kryddpeppar, nejlika, körsbär och lingon.

色はライトなガーネットで色の割にはかなり飲み口がパワフル。果実味が非常に豊かで新世界特有のはっきりとした味わい。
