Fort Ross Pinot Noir The Terraces 2017
This seductive and ultra-silky smooth Pinot captures your attention immediately with a bouquet of dark berries and heady, exotic spice. The palate is dominated by brooding black fruit flavors including pomegranate, cherry and plum, which are all carried by a fresh, balanced acidity and a racy, streamlined texture. The finish includes notes of black tea, mint, and dark chocolate. This is a modern and elegant wine that will provide pleasure anytime from now through the rest of this decade. Decant for 30 minutes if enjoying prior to 2024.
