2019 Mimi's Mind Pinot Noir, Lingua Franca, Eola-Amity Hills
Lingua Franca is the project started by Master Sommelier Larry Stone, with the help of winemakers Thomas Savre and Dominique Lafon. The 2019s might be the finest set of wines they've produced yet. This is one of their top Pinots, perfumed and ripe with red and black berry fruit, incense and exotic spice. It perfectly treads the line between richness and finesse. They used a very small 8% whole bunches and 26% new French oak.
