tobacco infused wine

A wonderfully broad-ranging nose reflects plenty of floral influences along with a lovely array of spice elements on the dark berry and Asian-style tea scented nose

It's enjoyable but should also develop for a long time in bottle

herb and wild strawberry profile is beautiful

It has a restraint on the finish which gives the tension that's sometimes referred to as minerality

Rhys, Swan Terrace Pinot Noir other_regions_italy tobacco infused wineThe 2019 Pinot Noir Swan Terrace bounds from the glass with a blue fruited, floral aromatic intensity that initially feels more composed and collected than the exuberant Alpine bottling. The palate is exquisite and lifted, with a suave, silky polish that unfolds into a layered but inward finish laden with sturdy, chalky tannins and delicious dark fruits. The most in need of integration and softening of the non Hillside 2019s, this will be a fun wine
