Tasting notes

The 2015 Pinot Noir Calegari Vineyard is medium ruby-purple in color with a nose of mulberries, warm plums and black raspberries with touches of underbrush and baking spices plus a waft of Ceylon tea. Medium-bodied with taut, muscular red berries and earth layers, it has a fine-grained frame and plenty of freshness paving the long, spicy finish. 586 cases produced.

The 2015 Pinot Noir Calegari Vineyard offers a super-appealing combination of Russian River exuberance and structure. The Calegari is not as obvious as some of the wines in this range. It will appeal most to readers who enjoy the more savory, earthy side of Pinot. There is more than enough complexity to provide fine drinking for a number of years.
