2012 Merry Edwards Pinot Noir Olivet Lane Méthode a l'Ancienne

Crushed flowers, dried red cherries, white pepper and savory herbs are some of the signatures in the 2012 Pinot Noir Olivet Lane. This is another of the more delicate, floral wines in the range, but there is good juiciness throughout. The 2012 turns more delicate on the finish, where there is a slight element of dryness in the tannin. The Olivet Lane is quite pretty, even if it doesn't quite have the mid-palate richness and overall raciness of the best wines in this range.
