The 2017 Pinot Noir is one of the darkest Pinot Noirs on the table

Vivid medium-dark red

(91-93)/2024+

graphite and smoke is not intense but gains vigor with continued aeration

This is excellent though a wine that will need at least a few years of patience

Talley, Pinot Noir Rincon other_regions The 2017 Pinot Noir isThe 2019 Pinot Noir Rincon Vineyard shows slightly more fruit on the nose and is a softer, more up front wine. Framboise, flowers, salty sea breeze, and spicy notes all define the nose, and its fresh and lively on the palate, with medium bodied richness. I like it today, yet I suspect it will be even better with a year or two in bottle and should drink brilliantly through 2031.
