2013 Bindi Pinot Noir Original Vineyard

(fermented in concrete tanks and then aged for 15 months in French oak barriques , half of them new): Vivid red. Intensely perfumed aromas of raspberry liqueur, spicecake, smoky minerals and candied rose, with a hint of cola in the background. Densely packed and sweet, showing a silky texture and a smoky mineral undertone to its sappy red and dark berry flavors. Gains breadth and power on the back half while maintain a lithe character. Gentle tannins build slowly and fold smoothly into the wine's juicy, expressive fruit on the long, seamless finish.
