J Vineyards Pinot Noir Nicole's Vineyard Estate Grown 2009
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesNicole's vineyard is a 45.8-acre hillside vineyard comprised of Arbuckle soil. Look for spicy, herbal, tobacco leaf, cedar, liquorice and rhubarb with raspberry and vanilla aromas. Ripe, round, juicy, supple attack that previews a slightly fat palate. Cherry, vanilla, coffee, cocoa, tobacco leaf and herb flavours. Good finesse and fruit but again the sweet oak is too dominant.Tasted: 17 March 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $70.00 | 750ml | estimated retail |
